The Straw that Built the Camel’s Bridge

Wow! 2 Followers now. I guess that means I really should try and write something interesting.

When the Sun of true power,
Sends forth its glow,
Take care where you tread
for the flowers below,
are the souls of friends.

I have had a couple of really bad days luck wise and its got (I reserve the right to use bad grammar including ‘got’ on my blog) me focused again on luck. The title of this post refers to the fact that sometimes, out of the direst bad luck you can bring out something good. It’s not easy though. I am not sure if I have been unlucky or maybe it’s a bit of evil finding its way back into my life. If it’s the latter then why now? And anyway I haven’t been feeling the presence that I usually feel when it’s around. So for the time being I think I have to put it down to very bad luck. Just little things really. Yesterday everything I did and touched went wrong. It was just continuous and I ended up knackered just trying to get through the day and I didn’t get anything done at all that I intended to do.

Just out of interest here is an edited version of my diary notes of luck/evil for the last month. What does anybody make of it? Do you have any similar experiences? Continue reading “The Straw that Built the Camel’s Bridge”

Reploids or Cyblicants?

In figuring out the main crux of my pending sci-fi story I ended up with a bit of a dilemma. My main character has some issues with whether he is human or not – Of course, this has been explored in Blade Runner and it’s not the main theme of my story so I didn’t want to get too involved with it but I did need to find a platform for his ‘kind of person’.

Originally I had conceived this part of the story in quite simple terms using just androids or cyborgs but this didn’t quite seem to cover all the possibilities I needed. Then I thought of sticking to Replicants – a-la-Blade Runner but this just seemed to dilute things and, in fact, make the story almost pointless. Continue reading “Reploids or Cyblicants?”
