Well it’s time, Saturday is Batman day. Off to see it with a friend, cannot wait! Have to say the first batman was fantastic, then the franchise went downhill to that catastrophe Batman & Robin………. The reboot was a master-stroke, absolutely love Nolans version of Batman. It is a pity that this latest one is…
I am an easily led person when it comes to writing. If I am watching/reading fantasy I really want to write fantasy. If I am watching/reading science fiction then I want to write that too. I always think it is a good idea to have a project of each on the go for this reason,…
