Writers: here's a theory about our brains.
The things we worry we keep repeating in our fiction actually help form our creative fingerprint.
One of mine seems to be denial.

Dear writers of Bluesky,
How often has the fear of wasting your time stopped you writing?
My own version of this usually sounds like:
"What if this takes years and nobody cares?"
Would love to hear what yours sounds like. 👀😄👊

I am now in remission from cancer. My brain knows this is great news, but my nervous system is taking a while to catch up.
When this whole cancer nonsense began, I 'banked' my voice by recording various voice samples.
Now that radiotherapy has started to bring the joy of mouth ulcers, it's become harder to speak. So I'm gonna turn those samples into an AI model of my speech. Could be very handy.

When I came out of the house today, quite a big spider had decided to block the front path by spreading a web across it and sitting smack in the middle like some terrible arachnoid Gandalf. (1/2)

Got my performance review.
I decided to have toast for breakfast.
This is only controversial when, like me, you're in your fourth week of radiotherapy and your mouth is inflamed and ulcerated.
I am slowly munching through the toast. It doesn't taste 100% like toast, but it is toast nonetheless.

I have requested that my cancer radiotherapy team play @judaspriestof.bsky.social's Breaking The Law while I'm having my 19th zap tomorrow. Watch this space ⚡️🤘

Today was my 13th day of cancer radiotherapy - and it was unlucky in some ways.
The machine was playing up and my session almost had to be postponed.
My cab driver quacked about how aggrieved he was with how the hospital had booked him, until he finally got the message from my silence. (1/3)

5 things I learned during my first week of cancer radiotherapy:
1) Radiotherapy is delivered by an enormous machine that, as some onlookers noted earlier in the week, looks a bit like the robot Drathro from #DoctorWho.

2 days to go: on Monday me + my boys move into the London place, just as daily cancer radiotherapy begins 👀⚡️
1st month’s rent is now covered ❤️ Thank you!
Target = £22K (we’re at £20,902). Hitting it means month 2 is secure + I can breathe a bit easier.
Link in bio if you can help 🙏

When you're not always in the same city as your children, a simple moment of online connection like this means EVERYTHING.
I didn't expect Roblox to be quite this wonderful.
Certainly didnt expect it to make me cry happy tears.

Three days now until my radiotherapy begins.
Kinda looking forward to getting started, which is odd considering I'll be zapped in the head with radiation every weekday for 6 weeks.
Also quite looking forward to the experience of living in London again for the 2/3 months of treatment/ recovery.

On Monday, radiotherapy will start to blast my taste buds, among other things.
So let's make the most of things now. 🥳
