Thank you everyone for your tips and advice on my last post. I definitely found it helpful, and if anything it just reaffirmed what I already suspected.

Write from the heart, write about what I want to write about, write about whatever is in my head, write about what interests me, write about what makes me happy, write about my life.

So what does that mean? what interests me and makes me happy?

My wife and girlfriend. Polyamory. My son. Books I read, music I listen to, movies/tv I watch. Science fiction. Superheroes (Marvel and DC). Football. Fishing. Gardening. Astronomy. BDSM.

I'm not completely sure how any of these are going to translate into posts but I've also been told to not think so hard about, just 'put pen to paper' and 'dont expect perfection on page 1'

All food for thought and I'm interested to see how it all plays out

I have however been working on the title for this thing. Instead of being a bland Jack's Journal, I've now got a name of Flying To The Stars:Adventures in Space, Time, Polyamory, and Fishing which I really do like. I've also got a layout that I'm much happier with.

One step at a time. Perfect won't happen on page 1.

Hi, Hello, Bonjour, Guten Tag, Hola, Ciao.

Welcome to my new website, to my blog, my journal. I'm not 100% sure what I'm doing here other than talking a bunch of utter nonsense. I'm at the stage of trying to figure out what the heck I'm doing here and how things work. The website equivalent of kicking the tyres or giving the place a fresh lick of paint, if you will.

I'm Jack.
My name possibly isn't the most help though as it doesn't tell you who I am. And who am I? Well, that is the question, isn't it?

I am a recent retiree looking for a new hobby. Apparently 'annoying my girlfriend' isn't the best use of my days. Her opinion, not mine. I'm a life-long fan of science-fiction and superheroes - both Marvel and DC. I'm a voracious reader and a movie buff. I enjoy fishing, gardening and astronomy. My favourite food is roast beef. I love to fly. I'm a father and a son. I'm a husband and a boyfriend - and an ex. I have two cats and two dogs. I can't swim. I wish I could type faster.

That is possibly enough as just an opening gambit.

Love to all
Jack
