http://mycatlikeselvis.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
My Cat Likes Elvis. Bits and bobs, this and that, and stuff. Tuesday, October 31, 2006. I'm tempted to put a sticky note on my screen saying, "Write like you used to write, only better! Easier said than done. Posted by Christine at 1:07 PM. Wednesday, October 25, 2006. I've just forked over 423 for the Robert McKee story seminar. Posted by Christine at 11:42 AM. Tuesday, October 17, 2006. Any nerd you can be, I can be better. Posted by Christine at 4:35 PM. Friday, October 13, 2006. What better way to ki...

My Cat Likes Elvis. Bits and bobs, this and that, and stuff. Thursday, November 23, 2006. Shameless self-promotion, mark II. The next Mixt Nutz. Gig is Sunday the 26th of November in central London (follow the link for details). Be there and laugh at my sketches, or I'll. wish the audience were bigger. Posted by Christine at 11:01 AM.

http://mycatlikeselvis.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
My Cat Likes Elvis. Bits and bobs, this and that, and stuff. Thursday, April 26, 2007. Mouthing off for fun and profit. Well, fun anyway. Today I was interviewed for an American political documentary. I'd forgotten how much I enjoy being opinionated and verbose. Watch this space for further details as they become available. Posted by Christine at 3:54 PM. Tuesday, April 24, 2007. What a difference 15 minutes makes. That would sort everything out. Probably. Great Just what I needed. Monday, April 16, 2007.

fifteen minutes of mantra-filled oompah: London Film Festival: Reality (d. Matteo Garrone)
http://tom-writer.blogspot.com/2012/10/reality-london-film-festival-lff-review-matteo-garrone-aniello-arena-big-brother-grande-fratello.html
Wednesday, 17 October 2012. London Film Festival: Reality (d. Matteo Garrone). Our second night of the festival, and after the brusque security slabs and barking BFI drones at the Odeon West End (“KEEP MOVING! 8221;), it was off to the altogether more pleasant and relaxed Renoir for Reality. The winner of this year's Grand Prix at Cannes, co-written and directed by Matteo Garrone ( Gomorrah. While as firmly rooted in Naples as its predecessor, Reality. Starts to turn into an obsession. Part of the film's...

a far away city: Writing Full Time In your Spare Time Pt 2
http://afarawaycity.blogspot.com/2009/07/writing-full-time-in-your-spare-time-pt_18.html
A far away city. Saturday, 18 July 2009. Writing Full Time In your Spare Time Pt 2. So last time we left out intrepid hero (me) at a turning point - having to give up writing full time and get a proper job. That was late 2007, and disappointingly no one has given me any large sums of money not to work since then (the selfish swine.) So I write part time. Is surprisingly tiring, so more often than not I tend to flop and/or sleep in the afternoons. I don’t say this looking for sympathy. I know th...Quittin...

My Cat Likes Elvis: May 2007
http://mycatlikeselvis.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
My Cat Likes Elvis. Bits and bobs, this and that, and stuff. Monday, May 28, 2007. I'm posting this from a GNER train somewhere in the vicinity of York. The on-board wi-fi is incredibly slow and for some reason seems to have given me a Swedish IP address, but - free wi-fi on a train! Before I logged on I finished off my sitcom for May's comedy writing challenge. Posted by Christine at 5:08 PM. Tuesday, May 08, 2007. Back to the world of the day job. Thus ends an approximately nine-month stint of writing ...

My Cat Likes Elvis: March 2007
http://mycatlikeselvis.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
My Cat Likes Elvis. Bits and bobs, this and that, and stuff. Tuesday, March 27, 2007. Upping the run rate. Today I've been chatting via blog comments. With Phill Barron, who writes funny sketches and gets gobs more material into NewsRevue. And The Treason Show. Than I do. Turns out he can also write material much faster than I can. Which raises the question, how can I increase my speed? Am I too used to working with a partner? I wrote sketches with Piers Beckley. Posted by Christine at 5:26 PM. And I hav...

My Cat Likes Elvis. Bits and bobs, this and that, and stuff. Wednesday, February 21, 2007. Every girl needs a tux. This morning I did something rather strange. Well, strange for someone in possession of two X chromosomes. I bought myself a dinner suit. I'm going to a science fiction convention this weekend (yes yes, I know, NERD! Failing the success and black-tie events thing, at least I'll be set the next time anyone has a Bond-themed fancy dress party. Posted by Christine at 9:45 PM. Also on the subjec...

Guardian/Observer Letters: The Final Reckoning: The Observer
http://guardianletters.blogspot.com/2008/05/final-reckoning-observer.html
In which I count how many letters to the editor published in the Guardian and the Observer are written by men, and how many by women. Here's why. Sunday, 25 May 2008. The Final Reckoning: The Observer. I only have four weeks of data for the Observer, so these figures are less telling than those of the Guardian. But nevertheless, here we are. A reminder of the actual gender split in the Observer readership (note it's slightly more even than that of the Guardian):. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Guard...
