Tryptophan Synthetase and other Songs
There is an album’s worth of songs that I have written for various Song Fu and SpinTunes challenges over the last few years, just kicking around the internet. As time passed, the quality of the songs improved, but they are…
Some Other Podcast
Between Every Photo Tells…, Wiener Blut and numerous other activities, my attention to Some Other Scotland has been spread rather thin of late. Okay, very thin. I am in the process of sorting this out. First of all, a new…
A Year of Stories
This weekend we hit two milestones over at Every Photo Tells…. First of all, we published our fiftieth short story on the podcast. That’s rather impressive, considering that we would have been happy to have been publishing our twentieth by…
A Share of the Golden Age
If you have been following Some Other Scotland and/or Every Photo Tells… and are looking for more podcast fiction, then I can recommend Nathan Lowell’s Tales from the Golden Age of the Solar Clipper. The ‘Share’ series of stories concluded…

NaNo Begins
NaNoWriMo has started and, at just twenty minutes in, I have 213 words written. It’s a long way to go, but it is a start. I have two main characters worked out and a pretty good idea of the first…
So Long, Myspace
By my reckoning, it has been well over 12 months since I last visited ‘Myspace’, even longer since I posted anything there and longer still since I found anything new or made any sort of connection with other artists. Usually…
