A guitar, it would probably be acoustic seeing as an amplifier and a mountain of guitar effects would count separate, so it would be an acoustic. writing songs is like keeping a diary to me.
My Journal. More properly known as the book of shadows. i make my own book, bind it and then fill it with everything from poetry, short stories, observations, insights, dreams, spells, herb lore, etc
Record Collection/MP3 Player. Well this would entail every single album, plus a turntable and amp and speakers. Ipods are ok but not as immersive or a the experience of handling a tangible product from the artist, but if it came down to it then an MP3 player… with a huge capacity !
To those that receive an email to say a new post has been published. I never realised it sent you the whole post. I type quickly, half the time not really focused, and after published, I then might re-read and adjust, which obviously those receiving the emails wont get. Its rare I’ll delete a whole paragraph, or insert one, but it could happen, likewise, spelling mistakes get missed and my sometimes skewey grammar needs a brush up. I’m not professional, these entries really are just me rambling on, I don’t strive for perfection, so ignore the email post and read the ‘piece’ after a few hours… I guess, apologies ;-).Dag’Dave
The Random musings of a nobody. “Dagenham Dave”, is slang for someone one stop short of Barking (mad), though more contemporarily refers to any wayfaring and carefree person. Dagenham is a town to the eastern side of London (Luds Dominium) that was first recorded in a Barking charter in 666a.d. as the town of Daeccanham. Daecca is an ancient man’s name meaning ‘bright’ or ‘famous’ . Ham is short for Hamlet. Dave is short for David, Hebrew for ‘Beloved’, My Surname ‘Wenborn’ derives from old English meaning of the Winding Stream.
Contents:- 1/ Book Reviews. They’re not reviews as such- to recommend or asway, I neither seek to promote nor condemn, more my personal reflections on the books I read. In that respect it’s a subjective thing. I write the reviews as it instils in the mind, like writing down your dreams on waking, the right to remember. 2/ Short Stories and Tales Short stories borne from imagination, dreams, thoughts and wanderings. Too large to be written in my journal of shadows.
3/ Full Books Books that were once published elsewhere, I have full copyright on these, and of course given here freely. 4/ Magazines and Articles Small snippets and articles that may or may not have appeared elsewhere, and information not included in Journal of shadows. 5/ Poetry A small selection of poetry. Like song, I create as a means to an artistic diary. 6/ WordPress Challenges Wordpress (where this website is hosted) offer up a daily prompt for people to answer, sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t.
