Yin Yoga
I’m tired. It’s only Monday night. Actually, spring is here now so it’s more like Monday evening. I take my place at the back and look around. I haven’t done this before, but I know the room. Am I nervous? Not really. I’ve been told to expect slowness and relaxation. Or have I? I imagine…
Feelings
Hello. Thanks for coming, it’s nice to see you.Today I’m going to do a really counsellory thing; I’m going to talk about feelings.I think it’s really important to do this, but I also know that it’s not the easiest thing to do, because… Well, because often there just isn’t time to talk about feelings, and…
Smokey Smokerson
Hello. Guess what. That’s right, I’m torturing myself. That’s how it feels anyway, but deep down, in my rational grown up mind, I know my thinking is all skewy. The real torture of course is the routine inhalation of a noxious mixture of gas, tar, burning paper and god-knows-what else. That’s the real torture. Especially…
Things I Have Made
Today I’m going to show you some of the stuff I’ve made over the years. There’s music, pictures, jewels… And probably something else too, that I’ve forgotten.I hope you like what you see – it’s all for sale, so if you’re interested in anything, please don’t hesitate to drop me a line via sam@twenty-six-seven.com.*** Music…
Blame and Happiness
Hey, it’s nice to see you here.I haven’t written a new blog post here for aaaaages – there’s been a long gap that was largely due to my computer deciding it didn’t like WordPress anymore, but which was also down to an overload of college work, and worst of all, an inability on my part…
Anthony Lysycia: The Art of Living
Anthony Lysycia, dancing with the camera in front of one of his massive canvases. Life. It’s a funny old thing isn’t it? You wait in silent darkness for billions of years, then all of a sudden: WHOOSH, surprise surprise, you clock in.You scream a lot at first, and you soon start bumping into stuff, and before…
Famous People (and places)
I don’t know why the following facts have popped into my head – I really should be doing something else, which is far more important and far more urgent than writing a blog post about famous people (and places) but… When inspiration strikes, it’s quite hard to resist sometimes. So here I am, dragging a…
Happiness
Happiness is a funny thing isn’t it? I mean, what even is it? The more I think about this, the harder it gets to come up with a functional definition. And the more I try to define it, the more questions I find myself asking. For example, I sometimes wonder: is happiness the same as…
Goodbye Lockdown(ish)
I wonder if fishing is allowed yet. It’s a bit weird seeing people queueing outside Primark all of a sudden. Have we all missed cheap t-shirts that fall apart after a few washes that badly? I suppose the range of socks in there is slightly more impressive than Tesco’s selection, so there is that… But…
How to Write a Novel #2
That’s right, I’ll admit it, I feel a bit stuck at the moment, with the book. It’s OK – don’t panic – I’m not stuck stuck, I’m just a bit… I dunno. Just a bit stuck, that’s all. I always knew that I’d hit a stumbling block somewhere along the line (let’s face it, a…
