This meditation offers the suggestion if a free-minded individual refuses to compete on societies precepts: happiness, security and wealth become active aspects of one’s existence  An open-minded individual understands the rules of life, and after […]

Rights of Passage Some years ago, I knew a wizard video editor. His mastery of editing could have been the key to open doors of national, even international recognition. So why did a potential sparkling career come to nought? Patience, overvaluing worth and ability, combined with an arrogant attitude, answer the question. His way was […]

Queen Victoria’s mourning of Prince Albert was life long.. Jet beads and black clothing became a trend followed by millions.

Free-flowing thoughts: On the beach, I sense the futility of life. Nothing helps me understand my inner-being better than being here.

Harry Price Lunch time chat with Jon and the subject turns to ghosts: Jon says: “Ian do you know anything about Harry Price and Borley Rectory?” We grab the microphone and make the recording:     Borley Rectory

People often wonder how to conceive the plot for a book: My idea is to use free-flow writing. Set a random thought in one’s mind: Set a time or word limit and fire the starting gun. If you have a microphone and recorder the seed of an idea can be germinated in a random and free-flowing […]

Alice Christmas Tree Interview: Listen to the interview while reading the article: Liz and I travelled to Littleport to see Alice and her family for the annual Christmas tree run.
