I’m half way through a new one called Happyland. Still some months away though.

The theme painting on the ‘Dr Floovax And The Hide-Cellar Project’ cover was a merging of two paintings. One sold on bluethumb (blue bloods on the moon), the other sold at auction several years ago and is displayed in the SOLD section of my folio (the one with an SS Doctor about to vaccinate an inmate/patient in bed).

I began writing novels about ten years ago though it’s nigh on impossible to get a book printed nowadays that ain’t leaning to hard left themes. But hey, where there’s a will there is a way. Best advice I have for young people (and older too I guess) is to find an outlet in the arts and produce something, not just be a consumer. Be it painting, writing, photography (with a real camera, not a pseudo-cam smart phone) or even gardening. Find something away from your chosen vocation and sink your teeth into it. Pick up a KJV Bible and read it. Know Jesus. That’s where real life satisfaction will come from, not chasing imaginary riches and fame that’ll never come. Produce something. Learn something real. Develop a talent and work at it so you can stand back and say ‘well I made that.’ Perhaps now in this post-freedom neo-socialist world (yes, looks like a couple of hundred million dead victims last century wasn’t enough to convince those dubious folks in government today that socialism always fails no matter where it takes root but hey, our satan-loving mis-leaders want to give it another shot with a high-tech flavour just in case Hitler, Stalin, Kim I’ll Sung, Pohl Pot, Mao, Pinochet and all the other despots were wrong) it is more important than ever to have that outlet to peel the eyes and brains away from those dreadful screens.

The world is like an oyster. Mostly cold. Mostly empty. So take that one grain of sand and start making with it a pearl.
