Only Treasure to Carry

Finally, the book is out. It went through an unintentional rewrite after a classic hard-drive failure, and a coffee spill on a couple of maps drawn earlier. But now it's out. Take a look below - there's a limited preview there as well.



Here's what I wrote in the description:
A chronological personal account of a journey into the world and deeper still, from the outside in. Only Treasure to Carry contains 40 pieces of freeform writing and 15 maps from six continents over 14 months. Contains "adult themes", I was told to add as a disclaimer. There.

If you don't want to buy the book but want to read it anyway, email me for the PDF.

Digg!

Another lesson in Letting Go

An email this morning on a pending job:

We know how important your data is to you but Unfortunetely, and on this occassion, your data is Unrecoverable.
This is due to the Severe head crash of the drive.
This means all data has been destroyed due to platter damage, caused by the heads coming into contact with the disks.
litterally the data is wiped off the drive.

This is Unfortunate, Im sorry to have to tell you this.

Do you want us to dispose of the drive,? (destroy)

There is no charge for the evaluation however all we ask is for you to pay for the return if needed .
The cost for this is £13.80


Whatever I meant to do is now undone. Time for new plans, then.
