Category Archives: Blogs

Here in the Blogs category, I, Joseph Elliot, will post occasional items about the real life world. These non-fiction items may or may not be of interest. They are more akin to the traditional blogs you might already have become accustomed to ignoring on a daily basis. I will try not to write too many blog items, in time-honoured fashion. I’ll probably do what most people do: blog furiously, riding a wave of passion and desire, for 6 to 12 months, realise no-one is listening, then taper off, and begin posting links to other people’s websites sporadically… maybe not. I might just promise to keep it infrequent, but non-fiction, in this category. Follow if you like.
