Billie Joe has kidnapped my muse

Before I discovered a band called Avenged Sevenfold I was a big fan of Green Day and in love with Billie Joe Armstrong. I wrote several Green Day/BJA fan fictions, only one of which actually made it onto the internet (and that wasn't up long).Recently, especially after seeing American Idiot the musical and the release of Uno!, I have found myself listening to Green Day a lot more as well as...

Just a quick update.

About three months ago I posted a blog letting you all know that I was making an attempt at getting back into writing and updating my stories.Three months on and I'm still managing to get updates written and posted on a regular(ish) basis, and I've got my fingers crossed that this will continue.Unlike before where I was working on several stories at once I'm currently trying to work on one story...

Returning to Mibba (at last?)

It's been a while but I'm starting to get back into writing. Late last summer my muse left me for a while and I struggled to get any writing done. Then time seemed to go against me and despite wanting to write I found it difficult finding the time to actually get any writing done.I finally managed to complete one of the stories I was working on but was worried that I'd lost interest in writing.But...

Jimmy

This probably isn't going to make much sense and just be one long ramble, but I feel the need to write it, probably in the hope that it will make me feel better about what has happened.I woke up this morning with out a care in the world. My plan for today was to do some writing, finish the one shot I was working on and try and get an update of Love is a Loosing Game started. That all changed...

Green Day - Manchester Evening News Arena 31-10-09

About 15 years ago, I stumbled across this band called Green Day, a song called Basket Case, an album called Dookie. I thought they were amazing, bought the album and finally managed to get hold of Kerplunk. In the past 15 years I have never been able to get to see them live, whether it was because I didn't have the money, the dates were awkward or the venue too far away. Finally, when they...

Honesty really is the best policy.

Have any of you ever been out shopping or something and had a homeless person come up to you and ask for spare change, usually claiming that they want it for a cup of tea, a bite to eat or to get the bus home?Sometimes we ignore them, sometimes we give a polite 'no sorry' and sometimes we pass them a few coppers.I don't know about any of you, but I tend to give a polite 'no sorry' and keep...

Thought this was funny and should share

I walked into work yesterday morning and found Sophie telling this story to Aimee. Only catching the middle part of it at first, I thought she was re-telling some strange dream she'd had. But then I listened closely and realised that this was something that really happened. I found it so incredible that I thought I'd share it with you guys.OK, so on Sunday Sophie and her family decided to go to...

Stories

I've been writing stories for over ten years now, it's always come naturally to me. I love fiction, always loved reading stories, spent most of my youth doing so (Call me a geek I really don't care). Songs have always inspired me as music has always been a big part of my life. I have never been musical in anyway, I can't play the triangle and I can't hold a note if my life depended on it! But I've...

A slow down in story updates

I have a bit of bad news for my story readers. The next two months for me are going to be pretty hectic with work as I'm trying to complete my final qualifications to be a proper Child Care worker.It's been a long and tiring process but I can finally see my certificate on the horizon but to get a firm hold of it it's going to mean nuckling down and working my ass off over the next month or...

Why don't people leave comments?

I love writing, always have, and now I've found this place that allows me to share my stories with others. I've needed a lot of guts to start posting my stories on this website as I always used to worry what people think of me. But in the end I kept telling myself that I don't know anyone on here and will never meet any of you face to face so who cares what anyone thinks.Anyway, I put a lot of...
