A Dog Called Tilly and the End of the Rainbow

She was mine for a few weeks. Then she went home. — A man and his dog are on their way home. The man’s looking forward to dinner and the dog’s tired after a long run.

Medium Removed The Green Circle And I Can Stop Paying!

What happened to transparency? — I’ve been reading how the Medium interface has changed for many people. Mine’s still the same except for one difference. People no longer have a green circle around their avatars. It only comes up when they write a comment or when you hover over a profile under certain conditions. Knowing…

One Boy And His Dog Go On An Adventure

I Bet The Queen Doesn’t Have a Portrait Like This

The pearl is the queen of gems and the gem of queens… and I forgot them! — I wanted to put this picture up as a little get well soon message for the Queen. This portrait is drawn in willow charcoal and it’s one of my favourite pieces of work, both for the way it turned out and also for the memories that came out as I…

This is How I Would Develop Medium for Writers

More transparency on how writers can help themselves — It’s been a few days since the announcement - I’m still pleased Medium have introduced a referral program but haven’t changed my mind that the implementation needs work. Referral programs are a business marketing tool. Medium’s referral program will attract affiliate-marketers, bloggers and people running writing courses who have no…

Artists Are Storytellers Who Speak To Your Soul

Art isn’t a talent, it’s a language — Crayons, colouring pencils and glunky messy paints are fun but I wanted to be a storyteller when I grew up. A storyteller needs a typewriter, typewriter ribbon and bottles of Tippex. …

The Night I Met a Wise Old Owl

There’s always a story inside a piece of art — The story behind this wise night owl artwork starts with a herd of deer. It’s May 2018 and I’m walking my dog in Richmond Park. It’s a beautiful evening and we’re both in the mood for a big long ramble, so by the time we’re on the home stretch, two…

How to Write The Best About Page for Your Business

It’s about showing your customers how wonderful they are — Your About Page is where people look to see if you’re their kind of person. It’s a challenge to fit your whole life into a walnut. Unlike a resume that follows a universally accepted format, an About Page is a blank canvas and all it insists on is that you…
