    • Ink, Pixels & Narrators

      Greetings from the edge, I’m a bibliophile. A die-hard, hardback, leatherbound devotee of the written word. I like books of all shapes and sizes and read across a wide range of genres, although I am yet to venture into family sagas. One day perhaps. When the Kindle first appeared, I carried that sleek little slab…

    • The Warm Crackle of Nostalgia

      Greetings from the edge, As I have previously mentioned, I love music. The broom cupboard is always full of some wonderful sound, be it a classic rock album, a musical soundtrack or a little dash of punk. I love it all. It’s a pity, really, that my own attempts to make music end with me…

    • An Antidote to Order Part 1

      Greetings from the edge, I make no secret of the fact that I’ve been wrestling with my mental health for a while now. For further reading, see… well, anything I’ve written. At my lowest ebb, a few years ago, I picked up 12 Rules for Life by Jordan Peterson. I can safely say it changed…

      Saturday 14th March 2026 Greetings from the edge, I have been working on a short story over the last few weeks; it’s called The Bone Garden.  It’s about a lonely boy who stumbles upon a mysterious garden where plants grow from the bones of the dead and whisper their secrets. Under the guidance of its…

      Friday 13th March 2026

      Greetings from the edge. Testing… 1…2…3…Is this thing on? Well, I suppose it beats the traditional first blog post of “Hello World.” Please don’t scroll away just yet. There are going to be some really cool things here. Lists, articles, reviews, and hot singles near you. Well… maybe not the singles. Rambles & Whimsy is…
