I used to like watching the odd post apocalyptic series or movie, but now it seems they are everywhere. The walking dead the most visible i assume but others are all over. Last night I heard of a series called the last ship that follows survivors of the end of the human race that are…
I know what I have to do….. I know when I need to do it by….. and yet it is a day until the start of NaNo and although I have done significantly more planning than other years I still don’t think I have done enough, I wanted a fully planned out novel this time…

The time is almost here when I go down to Wolverhampton for the bi annual race at Tough Guy. This year it seems allot colder than last year and that should being it back to what it was like a few years ago. I am looking forward to being back with the special forces and…
