Over a period of weeks as a child, I stole all of the dice from the board games in the primary school storage room. All sorts of different sizes and colours. Every one became mine. I do not know why.

It's 2012, I got into the 6th form college I desired & was told that I needed to select 1 more subject. This was because I had the opportunity in my secondary school to complete an AS level early (alongside my GCSE's). It meant that I could take 5 subjects to Alevel
Wrote a paragraph about the light hitting a round tower that houses archives and a library, and how the eastern side was burnished with light and the western side was in shadow. I thought it was cringe so decided to delete it and then I read this on the train home from work???
So interesting that both the Hindu tradition and the Dine people honour an eclipse by staying indoors and fasting. Two ancient societies on different sides of the world.
u can tell when someone has written a book to make £££ vs someone who had a book inside their soul waiting to be expressed from pre-eternity. I don't want to read the former anymore, life is too short man
