http://jamiewoods77.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Fiction non-fiction pop culture. Monday, December 24, 2012. 2012 has been a bit of a year, don’t want to brag, like, but compared the very little I’ve done since 1977, it deserves a bit of a hurrah. We had a really cute baby (well, I just sat and napped and watched while my wife had the baby, but still.), and we named her Josie, a cool punk-rock-kitten sister to Jacob who is nearly four now. I got a degree, and started a Masters. Is the reason that Rhodes’ best novel to date was called Gold. It’s f...

That side of class is easy to define, easy to implement, and without doubt is an aspiration. The band The Indelicates have released a song today, also entitled ‘Class’. Well these are the important career, life, country-changing first rungs on the ladder that are only available to the upper class, to the few, to the rich. Titled Diseases of England,.

Jamie Woods '77: August 2013
http://jamiewoods77.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Fiction non-fiction pop culture. Wednesday, August 21, 2013. I have two kids. They are forever experiencing firsts, be it steps, words, days at school, it never ends for them. For us though, as adults, it gets slower: the gaps between these fresh events in our own lives are filled with the mundane and the domestic. Oh yeah, and a very nascent and talented writer, who I'm old enough to be a parent of, called me a 'new young writer'. I wish. It's been an odd few days. Links to this post. Alexander and Burg...

Fiction non-fiction pop culture. Friday, May 24, 2013. Is the word I was looking for in my Fiction Fiesta. It is a Spanish term meaning displaced, confused, but an extreme of this. A lack of belonging to a place. A lack of 'home'. The opposite of my adopted country's hiraeth? Know is that this profound sense of desubicado. Helps me to describe something I've been trying to put a finger on, a word on, for some time. Thank you to Eduardo Halfon for introducing the term, In é. Key term from #FictionFiesta.

http://jamiewoods77.blogspot.com/2013/10/poetry.html
Fiction non-fiction pop culture. Thursday, October 24, 2013. I've been waiting for my MA results, and to ward off the inevitable inertia, have been writing poems. Seeing as this is of a more 'professional' endeavour, I've blogged about them on my proper website,. Rather than here, which is fast becoming a ramshackle array of words. Here I talk about Poetry Action. Here I talk about the Made in Roath. I've started going to the excellent Howl. I'm also writing for Wales Arts Review. View my complete profile.

Fiction non-fiction pop culture. Friday, October 19, 2012. Your fingernails are too long, I say. Your hair needs cutting, I say. Your jeans are ingrained with dirt, and are disintegrating at the knee, I say. And your face is, your face is,. Your face just is. I say, when what I really want to say is that:. You disgust me. I look at you, and you disgust me. Your apathy disgusts me. Better, or I could say that. Links to this post. So, then, University, eh? Cardiff is a wonderful place to do anything, espec...
