  • The funeral Of Big Bad Jon.

    Many people have been asking for the text of the funeral for Big Bad Jon. Here it is, at least, the plain words. I have added to the book in RED the parts of the book that I said, or the ad-libs that I remember. They may not be all correct, the day was a…

  • Spoon Theory by Christine Miserandino

    This was originally posted on www.butyoudontlooksick.com, but that website is down as at the time of writing (22nd November, 2015). I found that the original article (quoted below) was difficult to find, and rather found many people praising, or paraphrasing the article. In order to ensure that this incredibly important piece of information is kept,…

  • Homosexuality and the Bible – An accepting view

    Recently, I’ve been having a debate about why I think that God is okay with homosexuality. The debate has been often rather circular, so in order to aid that debate I thought I would outline my thoughts in a post that might help people understand my perspective, and along the way deal with any criticisms…

  • Sermon on NineWorlds (Wisdom)

    It’s been a while since I posted a sermon here. That’s predominantly because I’ve moved to delviering sermons from notes. Unusually last weekend, I felt the need to write out the sermon, as it was going to be a bit complicated to make sure that everything was explained in order. That means that I have…

  • Midwinter Anthology, 2014

    So, for a long time now, I’ve been working on getting a small digital publishing house going. Not just as a show-case for the writing work that I do, but as a place where I can help other authors and poets get their feet out there. This is a long process. It requires building a…

  • The Wild Sea – For Dad

    The Wild Sea – For Dad. Gone beyond the wild sea, Where foam washes the shore, Storm-grey waters reflect your eyes. You stand on distant inaccessible land, the end of all journey, Look out to the stormy horizon, And I will look back. Beyond the storms, Beyond the calms, Where fair breeze blows, Ruddying your…
