Don’t just talk about it, write!

So very remiss of me to neglect this blog for so many weeks. Can I blame the stress and trials of the winter lurgie? Well, I am…

Back at University properly this week, although I may have been seen in my second home (hitherto known as ‘the library’) the week before. I have not only endured the need to be laundered, lectured and led around an exhibition – I’ve had to attend ‘meetings’. I say attend, sometimes it felt like umpire and often it felt like wtf………..

The art in the building is incredible and it is sad we just waltz aimlessly by in our own personal storms of confusion, angst and feigned contentment. A particular painting caught my eye, for its promise of colour yet presence of grey.

Not the best photo, however watch this space as there is a publication opportunity attached to it around June 2020.

Is lovely, honestly, to see friends, fellow students, lecturers and our alarm clocks again – in that order. We are pushing for much greater collaboration this term. Yes, University, I said term – NOT samosa, erm Sempester, err whatever the trendy buzzword is…

We have a public flogging, sorry – reading of some of our works at the beginning of April in Stirling town centre. We’re not busking, promise… The MLitt team are incredible and – with their permission – I hope to share their evolving social media presence and some of their work with you in the coming weeks…

In the meantime, just think… if we could have just one sentence to sum up our lives to this point – what would it be? Stay safe, stay well, hug a cat.
