And now we’re back

So after an credibly long break, I am back. It started with losing Molly and not wanted to blog or really having anything to say, then I got used to the loss and then the Dread House took over.

Also I can’t decide if I like this..

as a logo compared to the other more comical one. I think this looks more horror than the other one we’ve had for over two years.

Distractions aside, the things that have changed are as follows;

  • I no longer work for Oasis Hadley or UK

  • I have a job working for the LGBT Network Enfield

  • I am and have spent a large amount of time developing the Dread House

  • I haven’t recorded any podcasts since August and even then I wasn’t please with them

  • I am growing a beard again for Movember

I have spent so much time on the Dread House that is it difficult for me to see the positive impact it has had if any. I can only see the negatives and how it needs to be improved to be taken seriously. We are in he process of writing a film and I am worried it will end up a joke like all of the previous ones. It is easy to make a film and edit it, but, really difficult to make a serious one and have it taken seriously. I am however pleased that I am back on here writing and who knows, I may even record a podcast to go with it.

I wanted to use the cover photo because it was the last sunset Molly saw and it gave me a sense of hope and promise not just because I thought she was getting better but also, because I thought my situation was improving, I don’t feel like that currently.

Return to the forest

I attempted to visit the new forest with some success, I wanted to visit Highcliff beach and podcast from there, but the wind was so strong I could barely hear Lucas when he was standing next to me.

I ended up abandoning that idea and recorded in the car slap bang in the middle of the forest, it was the best I could do under the circumstances.

HikeNPod Episode 13 published on Spotify 16th July 2023

I wanted to write and record a scary show for this episode but time constraints and lack creativity prevented me from doing so. I settled for seeing how all the money I had invested over the past two years in my set up to make podcast recording mobile.

  • I recorded the audio on the Tascasm DR-40x – Success, works like treat.

  • I wrote the blog on the tablet with the logitect keyboard – Despite writing was comfortable, for some reason, mobile wordpress wouldn’t let me sign in. I had to wait to get home before that could happen.

  • After that I didn’t bother with the video, I will try for episode 14.

  • I could upload the audio to podcasters/ spotify, again wouldn’t let me sign in???

In short and it’s a bit late for that, I need to iron out the teething problems by the 29th July and make sure all my devices are signed in. I found an audio editor for the tablet, which worked, surprisingly. I may take the Pi 4 with me but that does mean taking a screen and is more things to carry and lose.
