Gig Report: Thursday 16th September 2010
My second gig of the week, at a venue I'd not done before, and I think I'm beginning to get back on form. Hurrah for rehearsal! After Monday's experience, I was determined to up my standards somewhat, so I trimmed my set back as much as I could, and ran through... -
Gig Report: Monday 13th September 2010
After some time off for decorating, holidays, weddings and all manner of other stuff, my first gig in over a month was at that good old, friendly gig; Jester Jesters. And boy, was I rusty! Failing to learn a lesson from previous gigs, I hadn't really put enough time into... -
2010 Novel Project: Chapter Sixteen
Late again, but hopefully its worth the wait. Chapter 16 is online! I'm still faffing about with flat decorating, and successfully managed to get exactly no writing done while I was on holiday. But I got there in the end. Very close to the minimum word count now, and the way... -
Gig Dates for September!
After a bit of a break over August, I'm getting back on the stand up horse (you have to stand up as there's no saddle) and I've started getting spots booked in for September. Details of nights I'm gigging, as well as links to the relevant websites are up on... -
2010 Novel Project: Chapter Fifteen
Hugely late with this one, but I've finally got chapter 15 finished! So moving kinda got in the way, and I'm over a month late with this chapter, but I'm well on track to make the 50,000 minimum, so I'm still confident I can complete this resolution. I'm off on... -
I forgot our anniversary!
Ok, its official. I'm lame. Not only am I at least two weeks behind on the next chapter of my novel, but I also completely forgot the 2nd anniversary of this blog! I've just noticed that as of Sunday I have been keeping this blog for 2 whole years. And... -
Gig Report: Monday 26th & Friday 30th July 2010
Pretty late with this report, as I've just moved and still have no internet at home (sneakily typing this up at work). But enough fumbled apologies, I've got two gigs to report on before taking a break over August - no Edinburgh for Tom, I'm decorating. Monday's gig was at... -
Gig Report - Monday 19th, Tuesday 20th and Thursday 22nd June 2010
A busy week for me. Not one, not two, but three whole gigs! Three changes for me to hone my comedy craft, or crash and burn in a holy trinity of public humiliation. Thankfully (and surprisingly) there was a lot more of the former! First stop was Carnivale on Monday night.... -
2010 Novel Project: Chapter Fourteen
Another fortnight, another chapter! I was a little worried I might not get this one done in time, what with moving and everything. But luckily, I managed to get everything together and chapter fourteen's now online just for you! [Read Chapter Fourteen] [Novel Main Page] -
Resolution Update: Beat My Time on a 10K
Surprising how quickly a year goes, it doesn't seem all that long ago since last year's British 10K London Run, and last weekend, I was doing it all again! In case you don't remember, last year one of my resolutions was to run a 10K for charity. So in July, myself...
