1012 – connecting with the past

The header picture doesn’t have anything to do with Neolithic times. But it is near Gosport’s Mott & Bailey. This is the site of the Apple Dumpling Bridge.

I wrote a post a while ago about my interest in Neolithic sites and asking how to connect with people who built Stone Henge or Avebury, but what does connect even mean? I have no idea, which means it’s a pointless objective.

There’s a YouTube channel called the prehistory guys. They’ve made a bunch of videos about various sites and aspects. I watched this one today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kylfkoharGA Revealing the secrets of a stone circle in Shropshire.

It’s last few minutes of this video, where the presenter is stood on top of Corndon Hill, apparently it’s an important place in Stone Age terms. He was as befuddled about his feelings as I sometimes get. I found that strangely comforting, that someone with their knowledge felt like that.

I just want to write, but I prefer to stay away from controversial topics like politics. I am happy to confess that at the moment, I am writing for me. If you enjoy my writings, and I hope you do then that is all the better.

I'm here to work on fiction. Occasionally I'll blog but that's certainly not my focus. You have a specific fiction genre or format you can't find enough of? Ask me. Maybe I got it. I migh share it with you. Otherwise, leave me alone; I'm toiling away at my workbench.
