My Ideal Writing Environment and How I Need To Do Better

I woke this morning a whirlwind of productivity. With everyone else either at work or still in bed I had the peace of quiet of solitude to get caught up on how embarrassingly behind schedule I am, esspecialy considering I’ve not been at work all week.

Cut to a few hours later, when people started coming home from work, or getting out of bed, and my drive suddenly flew out of the front door. I found myself sat there, struggling to string two sentences together as people milled about around me, making themselves breakfast or vacuuming.

Sorry, No Blogs for a Couple of Days

As the title suggests, I’m not going to upload like I normally do for a couple of days. I do have some reviews half written, but these past two weeks have been rough.

Between me having to be at my regular night job a lot to cover people and a pretty nasty cold I’ve been dealing with, I’ve struggled to find the imagination and motivation to get anything finished. Well, finished in a form that wouldn’t feel rushed anyway.

Not only that, I’ve barely spent enough time conscious to get anything productive done. Seriously, these past to weeks of been a blur of sleep and work. I’ve also been fretting about moving house, which has been a process that has dragged out for months longer than I had expected it to, which is also playing on my mind. It’s a bit of a chaotic time right now to tell the truth.

So, my apologies for this dud week. I will try to get a mob psycho review up on Thursday, failing that I’ll just post it on Friday and start next week fresh. Sorry again everyone.

The look I rocked 10 years ago, back when I was just starting my blogging journey

It was a simpler time, when I would use my blog to pose questions such as: Who would win in a fight, the Incredible Hulk, or the Incredible Hulk’s weight in bees… Back then, I had it in my mind that I wanted to become a video game journalist. Little did I know that genuine journalism in video games is actually very rare.
