The most blustery months of the year occur in early spring. March and April are rife with wind-blown possibilities, especially because these sun gladdened, blossom-filled months lure everyone outdoors.
We all know that this is kite season, complete with large spools of thread and dazzling colored kites swirling in the sky overhead.
Just last night while walking my dog in the neighborhood park, I saw a kite stuck in the branches of a mulberry tree and was reminded of how when my nephew Steven was… Continue

We have been away. As we had to travel to a rather sad funeral (sad in the sense because she was so much younger than us - the age of our sons' generation) we stayed on in Derbyshire for a 10 day caravan break. It gave me time to think about what I am doing and what really matters in life. publishing and marketing came low on the list! Writing? At this moment in time I am wondering why I do it. Life is for living not sitting in front of a computer!
Best regards
Brian
