SNAIL TALES
You know I love snails, right?
Let's take a moment to think about George. The Hawaiian Achatinella apexfulva - the last of its kind - has died. Big slimy love to all those that cared for him and did all they could to keep the species going... sob.

BOOK BITES
To set you on your journey to becoming fantastic humans, I've started a new page called Bite-Size Books where I'll list the books that I've recently read and really loved. There should be something to get your teeth stuck into. Unless you're a vampire, in which case you may be disappointed with the texture.
take me to BITE-SIZE BOOKS! ARTICLES OF INTEREST
ROBOTS! ROBOTS!
READ ALL ABOUT IT! HEY, YOU LOT. YEAH, YOU - THE ONES I'VE TALKED TO IN SCHOOL HALLS AND CLASSROOMS. LISTEN UP! You may have thought I was being over-dramatic about the rise of the robots and how you, as brilliant humans, could combat them by arming yourself with literature... But just look at this. It's EXACTLY what I was warning you all about... Which goes to show that people who make things up sometimes know what they're talking about! Read all about it here... ROBOTS READING BOOKS - NOT NECESSARILY A GOOD THING.... WONDERFUL ARTICLE about STORY TELLING (I can help you with that)
WHY KIDS SHOULD WRITE STORIES... Those who have heard me talk will understand when I say TOLD YOU SO! |
