Happy Halloween

A Little belated but I'm happy to have an excuse to show off my pumpkin skills and love of candles

 

Halloween was pretty quiet this year for me. No fancy dress or parties to go to in the end. No trick or treaters either though. That's probably a good thing really. I've never quite understood why a day of the dead involves begging for sweets.

In other news, I am unemployed once again. While I had a job I felt like I had no time for anything. Now, just two days into life without nine to five, I'm getting a bit bored. Still, this will hopefully mean that you might get some more illustrated posts like this one (well actually a few posts have my art on them but most of those are utilising rather older pieces). I also try where possible to use my own photographs. I am very much an amateur in this field unlike some of my multi-talented fellow bloggers. I lack their skill and decent cameras and in some cases degrees in photography but I'm up for a challenge.

Anyway, hopefully I'll have some nice new bits and pieces up here shortly. I've got a review or two in the pipeline and poetry under construction. November should be a good month.
