Blocked

Feeling a bit blocked on the writing front to be honest. Which isn't great when a book chapter about the crisis of the Conservatives is due this Saturday. Ho hum.

Past experience suggests that when I moan about "not feeling it" or having "nothing to say", it's enough to uncork the dam and watch the torrents of words spill forth. Here's to hoping this is one of those occasions.

On the radar of things I'd like to talk about is the gamed petition calling for a general election, calls on Labour to reverse their tax plans, the decision to let Ukraine use long-range missiles on Russia, the further growth of Bluesky as an alternative to Twitter and the long-unusable Facebook, and something on a rather good science fiction novel I polished off recently. If I can't even manage to write a wee comment on current affairs, weightier pieces or bad tempered evicerations of the government aren't about to land.

Anyway, just to let you know I am alive and this place remains a going concern. But in the mean time, any suggestions for getting the writing flowing again will be gratefully received.
