My Trenchcoat Days
My good friend Roland sent me a photo from many years ago, taken some time in 1985 in the town of Rye, so Roland informs me. I am standing with his then girlfriend, Gerry, outside a shop. I have no recollection of that day, or the photo being taken, but I do have fond memories of the trenchcoat I am wearing. Living in London, a lightweight trenchcoat was the ideal attire for most of the year. Enough to protect you from the rain for a while, or keep you warm enough when it was chilly and windy. On brighter days, it could be carried easily, just in case it might be needed later.
Living in Beetley, I now have no need for such a coat. But I confess I am very tempted to get one anyway. 🙂
Why I write thought provoking science fiction the way I do
I was asked why. This is the reason why!
If you are the kind of reader who desperately needs to have every nuance, ever action and reaction explained to you like a small child, then my style of science fiction writing is clearly not for you.
I write in such a way as to make you ask yourself questions all the way through the stories.
In my first published science fiction novel “Onet’s Tale”, my editor insisted that a Dramatis Personae of the characters be added at the front of the book before the first page of text, claiming that without it the reader would be confused.
Apparently that was not the case.
From the feedback I have got from those among you who have read it, with one or two exceptions, you weren’t the least bit interested in his list at the beginning. Like most normal intelligent readers, as and when I introduced you to each character, you…

WHEN NEW COMES, THE OLD ONE WILL BE DECLINED; THE FINAl STEP!
More from my ‘brother’…
Honestly, I never envisioned myself writing a trilogy on this subject. Yet, here I am. While the first two entries were brief updates on my situation, I feel compelled to elaborate further and shed more light on this occurrence. I cited a quote from Dr Jung on “change” as we recently upgraded our kitchen. To be frank, I usually resist change unless it’s necessary. I’m content with older things as long as they still work. Thus, I saw no reason to remodel our kitchen since it was still working properly.
Of course, there is another quote from Jung about this subject which I admire as well:
Anyway, my adorable wife, though, has a different approach. She is not very patient and cannot tolerate things for too long. For example, our kitchen was almost thirty years old ( I must admit it is aged!), and…

A reader reminded me that today is the 63rd anniversary of the so-called Roswell UFO Incident. Even if you know nothing else about the UFO phenomenon, you certainly have heard about what supposedly happened in Roswell, New Mexico in July, 1947: a crashed flying saucer, autopsies on alien bodies, Government cover-ups. It ushered in the 1950’s kitsch of bubble-headed little green space jockeys inside silvery saucers flitting across our skies.
This space-age mythology, embellished over the years, tells of an alien interstellar vehicle simply falling out of the sky near a desert town. The only tangible evidence is scraps of wood and metal foil and other mundane debris that suspiciously look like they came from a crashed U.S. military balloon. That is, unless you believe the Government has been hiding all the…

WHEN NEW COMES, THE OLD ONE WILL BE DECLINED; A Neverending Story!?!
More teething troubles!!!
Honestly, I wasn’t sure if I could write this article. You might wonder why and argue that we just returned from a fantastic vacation and were excited to use our newly renovated kitchen. Unfortunately, things didn’t go as smoothly as we had hoped. First to say;
Whenever I travel, I face a major issue of leaving my work behind at home. As a struggling artist in a world of affluence, I only have my smartphone to work with while travelling (if I would come to it), which isn’t as effective as my PC. Thus, I cannot function efficiently and stay on top of things. While taking a break may seem ideal, I often return home to a pile of posts and emails that need to be checked. Unfortunately, other issues seem to constantly follow me.
Anyway, in the beginning, we noticed a few minor errors in the construction of the…

WHEN NEW COMES, THE OLD ONE WILL BE DECLINED; The Next Step!
Rather Aledin than me!!!
We have completed several tasks in our kitchen renovation project so far. We removed the old cabinets and resolved any leftover issues, sealed all the gaps, painted the walls, and replaced the flooring with new laminate. We are eagerly anticipating the arrival of our new kitchen cabinets next week, and we expect them to be of better quality than the cabinets of the federal government.😉🤗🤟
Take care, friends. 🤗🙏💖
