For those of you who know me you may know that I have blogged in the past at The Moonbat (and if you really know me you will be aware of http://polswatch.wordpress.com). I kept The Moonbat going for about a year and a half up until about this time last year when it finally lost steam. I’ve thought about reinvigorating it many times but recently finally decided to lay it to rest (don’t worry if you liked any of those pieces they have all been transferred onto here and will form the archive of this blog).

While I loved The Moonbat it was exhausting. It was basically a full opinion and analysis blog, which I eventually found became just too much. So, to disappoint some (maybe), this blog is going to b different.

While there is a chance I will be posting political and opinions pieces (with some actually coming as my first posts) this blog is going to be more personal. This will be more about my personal experience as someone who is writing and thinking a lot about different issues.

What does that mean? Well, I’m not really sure yet. But I have some ideas. The blog will follow me and the stuff I am working on. I aim to write personal reflections on my work, from the process of writing and my travels to reactions to books, lectures, articles and events I have been attending. It will hopefully be a space to explore ideas that will form parts of my greater projects in the future.

Hopefully there will be some interesting stuff for you, but if not I am sure there will be some interesting stuff for me.

So enjoy!

Simon
