Could hardly keep eyes open for morning pages. Good to see Jenni open her birthday presents. Great party at Station East. Lots of good turns on the mic. Jon Farthing did one of his old comedy sets; Asa J Maddison came out of retirement to perform some of his best poems; and Alix Alixandra closed with mint songs on the ukulele. Lots of Queen on the sound system. Jenni loved it. 11.17 pm.

We didn’t get back to the house until three after a few drinks in Newcastle with a small group of friends. Jenni went to work this morning. I stayed in till dinnertime. Caught X71 bus to Consett for bank transactions, food shopping then home to work. Got role confirmation for Terror in the Trees. Contractually obliged to keep details secret. 11.10 pm.

Fiction ideas from marathon prompts in morning pages. Read some Brexit stuff. I’m not an economist. I’m mainly into seeing the Tories collapse. An NHS wipeout is most worrying. How do Americans put up with such extortionate healthcare. Saw some Londoners living in storage containers on the six o’clock news. Good to read Natalie Crick’s poetry interview – pleased she’s making progress. Got a canny response to next month’s Poetry Jam event page. Laughed at a Lemmy interview online; also Nigella Lawson and Marilyn Manson sharing the couch on a 2007 episode of the Graham Norton Show. Pity the computer is jamming again. 11.02 pm.
Thursday 22nd August 2019
Spent most of the afternoon working on Anomalies Deluxe. Updated contents list and corrected numbers. Still need pictures. Watched six o’clock news – how many more forecasts of impending catastrophe do we need before people demand a second referendum. Watched some superb Jarboe (ex Swans) live footage online but computer too slow and outdated to play much of the YouTube stuff. Walked in Castleside Quarry to get a Steve Achieves. 10.50 pm.
Friday 23rd August 2019
Up at half seven. Forced myself to do a marathon prompt for morning pages. Shaved and got contact lenses in two hours prior to ten o’clock appointment at opticians. The woman who did the test knew about Terror in the Trees and was keen to hear a bit more about it. Bought copier paper and food then home to a sleepy afternoon on the couch. Jenni rang at teatime. She’s off to Edinburgh again for the final weekend of the Fringe. I had a retro evening of Metal Hammer articles and music cassettes on the player. Rehearsed for tomorrow’s gig. 10.14 pm.
Saturday 24th August 2019
Three-hour journey on public transport to Bistro Du Parc in Tynemouth for The Stanza as part of Crossing the Tyne Festival. Enjoyed it all this afternoon. Rantin’ Richie, David Roe, Harry Gallagher, PA Morbid, Sky Hawkins, Tony Gadd, Totu Akinyemi, Amy Wardley and Karen Middleton. Good chat and walk down to the sea front with Tony. Made it home okay. Only downer is the fruit flies. Bugger! 10.05 pm.
Sunday 25th August 2019
Ten and a half hours sleep. Got some new fiction ideas down in morning pages. Checked out the politics online. Listened to Behemoth and Slipknot. Only really like the former. Sausage and veg dinner. Read a lot of Long Hard Road Out Of Hell (Manson/Strauss). Needed an easy day. 10.42 pm.
