Yesterday I installed WP Word Count plugin and was surprised at the results
Wow! Have I really written so much, and most of it non consequential? Doing some rough maths, one printed novel page has about 250 words which makes the count to 800 pages…. Now only if they were worth something 😉
There is a place on Earth where there is still morning of life and the great herds run free – Serengeti plains of East Africa.
This is long over due post but after writing the above quote a couple of months ago it was just lying in the draft…. No particular reason, just as there is no particular reason why I completed it today 🙂 Continue reading for GPS Trails and Geotagged photos
I miss the days when people had journals and not blogs, but as I have written before Facebook and Twitter have killed that. Writing a post about birthdays use to be an event in itself. I for one would wait for friends to write their birthday post to wish them and read about what they felt about the year gone by or what they were looking forward to in the coming days.

When we returned home I got out “The book of Indian Reptile and Amphibians” to see the scientific name of the snake.
For past couple of months I have been undergoing a writing crisis of sorts. Reviving this journal was a part of the plan to over come the writers block. The plan did work for a while and then I slipped up again. I don’t really know if the thing I call a ‘block’ is real or just part laziness and part twitter effect, but I would like to put the blame squarely on twitter because I do manage to write about 3000 words during the week in tweets. However I still struggle to come up with a decent blog post about anything. As I tweeted Twitter killed the blogging star! but thanks to twitter I came across 750words.com!
