I prefered Brave New World to 1984 to be honest.


Read Junk by Melvin Burgess yesterday to have a bit of a break from all the dystopian stuff that was becoming all to real in a science fiction/science fact/future/present kinda way. Bit scary when you look at it.


Started Stone Baby by Joolz this afternoon. Haven't read it since it first came out and was plesently suprised(reminded) to find I'd got it signed by both Joolz and Justin.


I'm cracking through the books at the moment now I'm taking it easy on the house redecoration.
Whooosshhhh !!!

And now ....
Mad, bad and dangerous to know
or the (only online) autobiography?
And me, I`ve got a black place in my heart
Still got this hole in me
Perhaps - I am the master of nothing?
