All along, ideas pop up in my head, and I enjoy writing out what I see in my mind.
These form many of the posts I put up here on Tumblr now.

I also go back to the short writing which I have done since May 2008, and which has been compiled into ebooks for sale.
They are entitled Coping, from May to December 2008; ‘The rules and I’, for my blog posts in 2009; and ‘A happy, happy story’, for my online writing last year, in 2010.
For those 3 years, I published my own stuff on Simply Words blog, at the Blogger site.
It wasn’t just words that were published.
I found some of my scenic photos good enough to put up, and late in 2010 began adding words to accompany these photos.
In the Simply Words blog, I had so far written new material, and attached to the end of these posts, the first pieces of writing collected in Coping, from 2008.
I’m hoping that as I revisit what I wrote 3 years back, I will find more and more patterns which connect my separate short works together, and add new short new articles to them.
In this way, I give the reader a chance to see again, how things have changed since I initially published those earlier works.
I can also build up from these revised and extended writings, and compile other new ebooks with them.

I’m more concerned than ever, that my writing efforts are still too scattered, and that I do not have a main style and main focus in my publishing.
For example, I’m very slowly publishing my scenic photos of Tasmania in 2006, with words written from this year, 2011, onwards.
I’m also hoping to post photos from earlier than May 2008, when I started compiling material for that year for the ebook Coping, with added words from now onwards.
And since last month, I’ve started practising my own little doodles, to add to all this personal publishing.
Adding to this, I also wish to write up on the imaginary world, and its surrounding outer space, within which I base some of my stories.
But I’m more aware than before, that all this may result in me spreading my efforts too thinly, in too many directions.
So I’ll take enough time here to connect different writings and photos, and hopefully doodles, into a more cohesive body of work.
Coming over here to Tumblr was perhaps my unconscious desire to return to simplicity and plainness.
If I’m ever going to win over you as my reader friends, I’ve always rather wanted to do so with the better bits of what I am, than to pretend at what I am not.
