Over the years, I’ve held on to various collectibles from Dad’s life in Hollywood, including some of his scripts from the original series, a Golden Ticket to the premiere of Star Trek The Motion Picture, a pair of ears from Star Trek 2009 & those tribbles which keep multiplying!
I'm reading Belfast to Baillieston by @CharlieGracie_ from @RedSquirrelPres a poetry/prose exploration of family, an act of honouring.

@kittyjmac @EatTheStorms @deuxiemepeau @ByLeavesWeLive @FedWritersScot @NorthwordsNow Oh, this sounds wonderful, perfect for a gentle Sunday and a whole new podcast I hadn't met before!
Today I have done a lot of thinking. I know the end of the next short story, what happens in Hope 5 and I have fleshed out a possible new series. However, beyond eating I haven’t actually done anything, is 18.33 too late to start today?

@HonestUlsterman @FedWritersScot Great mag! But this glimpse of 1975 illustrates how important Equal Opportunities legislation was. 1975 was a man's world in literature as in so much else.
