Another night comes around again
As the clock approaches ten
So very tired but can’t sleep
Keep on trying but awake to keep
Much on the mind this restless spirit
For every hour and every minute
Caught in a whirlpool of emotions
Always wishing for a magic potion
Oh to be free from this prison keep
Oh to escape this restless sleep
This soul trapped and apart from this world
Many thoughts in this mind do swirl

I'm a thinker, listener, a "question's pretty much everything" type of person. A seeker of knowledge, always restless, yet seeks the calm in life.
I love writing in all forms and am in the process of completing a number of ongoing projects. I love the craft of writing and the possibilities it holds. A magic carpet through the mind. I love pretty much all creative arts, music, film and theatre the leading ones.
Born in Hertfordshire in England, my family Irish, Welsh and English, I currently reside in Edinburgh, in Scotland. I'm drawn to coastal and mountain regions where I like to go to think and draw inspiration from. Ireland is a place that's dear to me, and I try to get back to see family and friends as much as possible.
My interests are wide and broad, too many to mention here, but history, archaeology, criminology, music and film are just some of those things I love.
I hope you enjoy my ramblings on here as that's what they are really. I'll let my fingers do the ''talking...''
