I’m still here

19 May 2020 Anna NicholsonLeave a comment

This is only my second post of the 2020s, and we’re nearly five months in already! It’s another unpost, because I still haven’t quite worked out what I’m going to write about next. But I’ve asked for a little help with that from my Twitter followers! With less than four hours to go in a… Continue reading I’m still here →

Review of the decade

3 January 2020 Anna NicholsonLeave a comment

This is an unpost. Unposts are now in their own category on the blog, so you can find them all easily. That’s a bit un-unposty, putting a link in there, but this is the first post of a new decade, so I feel able to bend the rules a little. Not too much, though! I… Continue reading Review of the decade →

An unpost from the liminal zone

27 December 20192 January 2020 Anna NicholsonLeave a comment

I have a few proper posts in various states of preparation, as well as several other outlines of posts that I want to share with you one day. But right now, my general state of existence precludes me from sitting down and writing anything that involves planning or concentration. So, in this liminal time (for… Continue reading An unpost from the liminal zone →

Yet more unpostiness

5 November 20192 January 2020 Anna NicholsonLeave a comment

Today isn’t the day for a post about trans speech therapy and singing, or about discovering that I’m autistic and how I got my diagnosis, or about any of a number of other topics that I’d like to write about when I’m in the right frame of mind. Nor, I’m afraid, is it a day… Continue reading Yet more unpostiness →

A dreich unpost

18 October 20192 January 2020 Anna NicholsonLeave a comment

The title reflects both the weather today (which came as a shock to me when I left my flat not that long ago) and my general mood of late. (I nearly wrote, for the benefit of non-Scots: ‘if you don’t know what dreich means, Google is your friend’. You can certainly use Google to find… Continue reading A dreich unpost →

Nothing in mind (an unpost)

7 September 20192 January 2020 Anna NicholsonLeave a comment

I have to write something. But I’ve been finding it so difficult to be interested in anything lately. Do you ever have times like that, when you go through all the things you normally like to do and just think nah! and end up doing nothing but not being happy with doing nothing either because… Continue reading Nothing in mind (an unpost) →

Festival unpost

15 August 20192 January 2020 Anna Nicholson1 Comment

No, I’m not going to write about the Edinburgh International Festival (in which I have sung in two concerts this year, with two remaining). Nor am I going to write about the Fringe (which I’m not going to see anything of, though I would have liked to have seen Harry Josephine Giles’s Drone and Travis… Continue reading Festival unpost →

Unsleep: an early morning unpost

19 June 20192 January 2020 Anna Nicholson3 Comments

I say ‘early’. I realise that’s a relative term. But I’m starting to write this before getting up and having breakfast or doing anything else. (I’m sure I’ll take a break at some point.) Let me begin with the dream and see where that leads. There was a murder (mystery). There was splitting into twos… Continue reading Unsleep: an early morning unpost →

Unpost 10: decimal

24 May 20192 January 2020 Anna Nicholson6 Comments

Ooh, the ratio! No, I’m not talking about the reply/retweet ratio considered indicative of bad takes on Twitter. Just that this is yet another ‘unpost’, pushing up the ratio of rambling to (I’d like to think) moderately focused posts here on my blog. Alternatively, pushing down the signal/noise ratio. Having typed this first paragraph (well,… Continue reading Unpost 10: decimal →

unixpost (infix numeral edition)

3 April 20192 January 2020 Anna Nicholson1 Comment

Still in the land of unposts. Life at the moment is too chaotic for me to bring you sense or structure. Bear with me, or go and read something interesting by someone else. Life is short. I won’t hold it against you. Poetry competition! Write me a poem that includes rhyming lines ending in Pilates… Continue reading unixpost (infix numeral edition) →
