Monday, 18 June 2012. You’d think that seeing the same two-hour play twice in three days might get a little repetitive, but not when there are such drastic differences between the two performances.

Shelley's Blog: April 2014
http://shelleyirving.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, 26 April 2014. I’ve noticed a lot of news lately centred around patriotism, nationalism and cultural identity. Usually these are tragic stories involving rebel groups in war torn international countries with political situations we could never hope to comprehend or wish to experience. This week, however, the UK amused me by creating a few of their own. I’m also confused by the way it’s celebrated. Surely the point of honouring your national identity is to preserve its culture an...Enjoying high...

Monday, 18 August 2014. Now, with the advent of wi-fi laptops, tablets, aforementioned smartphones, digiboxes, media players, streaming and a wealth of speedy downloadable content from across the globe, I genuinely fear that the western world is blindly and obediently entering some Orwellian state of totalitarianism. When I was growing up (which wasn’t that. Century, a couple sitting down to 6 consecutive episodes of the same series on their night off would probably be considered a date. As a primary sou...

Saturday, 7 February 2015. It’s the fundamental purpose of every species and surely a thing to be celebrated. But the (over)reaction to seeing babies get fed is not the only indicator of this sad truth about humanity that’s caught my attention. I for one am wholly unconvinced that any of these examples prove the superior advancement of our species. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Visit www.shelleyirving.com.

Shelley's Blog: July 2012
http://shelleyirving.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, 21 July 2012. Our nation was rightfully appalled last week by the tragic conclusion to a story that was a sad representation of a major issue in many parts of the world, when innocent Lennox the dog was murdered in the name of Breed Specific Legislation. The way he looked. I hope that poor Lennox’s death will not be in vain, and that he will be remembered as the last needless victim of what is effectively canine fascism. Http:/ www.shelleyirving.com.

Saturday, 9 August 2014. Faith in G.O.D. The biggest test of all applied to either publishing method, and that was having the guts to place it at the mercy of the public at all. It’s hard to let go of something that’s been a part of my life for so long. It’s my creation and it contains a lot of me, so in many ways it feels like sending my child (or rather my outcast Frankenstein. Buy GO.D. in paperback here:.

Shelley's Blog: September 2012
http://shelleyirving.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 18 September 2012. So much world, so little time. Some time ago, I contracted a terrible disease. It’s not life-threatening, but it does seem to be lifelong, causing persistent, aching discomfort and inconvenience. There is no known cure, and treatment can be very expensive. I was bitten by the harmful and highly infectious Travel Bug. My underlying disorder of chronic neophilia only heightens this desire for new experience, and it’s a constant struggle to find a way to reintroduce that in...
