Ch-ch-ch-changes

Written by Barry

It’s been a couple of weeks since my last posting. Sorry about that.

While I haven’t been posting, I have been making a few changes to the site. Not big changes, or that, but changes all the same. Before the changes I had it plastered all over the pages that I was a children’s author. Which I suppose is fair enough, since I am, in fact, a children’s author.

But I’m not just a children’s author. I ain’t no one trick pony, I’ll have you know. I’ve written screenplays. Screenplays, I say!

They’ve never been made or that, but I’ve written them all the same. And I did a sitcom thing with the BBC. The finished script wasn’t exactly side-splitting or that, but still …

Okay, so before the kids’ books my writing career wasn’t exactly a roaring success. It wasn’t even whimpering mediocrity. It was, it could be argued, a sobbing failure. Let’s call a spade a spade, here.

But I’ve decided all that is going to change. I’m writing more and more books for children, but am going to make more of an effort to branch out into all the other areas which interest me. Sketch writing, for instance. I’m going to have a bash at that. And comics. I love comics, so why don’t I at least try to write one? There’s no reasonable excuse, so I won’t waste your time or mine trying to come up with one.

So yes. I’m going to try harder. I’m going to stretch my creative muscles. I’m going to write, dammit! I’m going to WRITE!

Just not tonight. It’s too late, so I’m going to bed instead.
