I mentioned before that I’ve been blogging over at Medium for a while. I’d love it if you went over and checked it out.
My latest Medium posts include articles entitled:
“I Can Neither Confirm Nor Deny – how to survive in a post-truth age”
“I know I’m Right! – the illusory value of moral convictions”
and over at the
Colonel Thorn blog, I reflect on my two years of research.
What will 2021 bring us all, I wonder!
I’ve started to blog over at Medium. I felt like it was the right place for me to be discussing the things on my mind right now. I hope you’ll take a moment to pop across and check it out! The first post is called Are You Who I Think You Are?
If you read it and it resonates with you, then I invite you to leave a comment, so we can keep the conversation alive.
Hope you’re Covid safe!

Talk-weary, smiled out.
A retreat to the Marble Bar.
Speak-easy and sombre warmth.
Thoughts adrift towards a new life
and one past
quiver over diffident possibilities and the rattle of bar talk
Rising, crackling, ebbing.
And here alone, as always.

In a near-future where privatised health care has sent the cost of over-the-counter medicine soaring, terrorists execute a well-planned attack on the world’s pharmaceutical companies.
Ella West is an ex-pat Australian living in New York City when the coup begins and is mistakenly imprisoned for suspected terrorist activity.
On her release she finds her partner, Joah, has passed away because of lack of treatment due to the malfunctioning health care system. As the city descends into chaos, she plans to leave, but is is asked a favour by a friend — to transport his teenage daughter to safety in South Carolina. Ella heads south, planning to honour her friend’s wish and then find a way back across the Mexican border and home to Australia. But in the turmoil that unfolds, her life changes forever.
