At the moment I am suffering stress and depression. It seems that I am in a dark pit with no exit in view. Churchill once described his depression as his "Black Dog". If depression is a dog, then the dog which bit me should be subject to the provisions of the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991. However, Churchill found that his way to combat depression was writing. In his case it was writing about his ancestors and their warrior ways.
I have also found that writing is one of the few ways to ease the pain. I guess it is a cathartic process which helps by enabling me to concentrate for a few brief moments and also gives me the opportunity to have a rant when I need to.
So, having spent time writing essays and this blog, I find my mind turning to filling the time between my current course ending at the end of September and my next course beginning in February 2013.
The answer to the unasked question, dear readers, is to start writing a book. The book I write will not be a penny fiction novel, but neither will it be an educational classic. It will, however, give me the opportunity to vent my frustrations and give a blow-by-blow account of the circumstances which led to my current state. In this book I will hold nowt back. There will be those who will try to silence me, but they will not succeed. So, watch this space for more news!
