Writing About My Life, Work, Creativity, and the Daily Effort to Learn, Grow, and Be Better.
Whilst my wife and kids were off-island taking a (working-)holiday, I found myself craving the kind of food I used to indulge food had in my single days - bold, hearty flavours that pack a punch. After taking a look at the interior of our fridge, I decided to cook up a dinner similar to... Continue Reading →
In the past few days, I've come to understand how AI prompts are structured, and it's been quite the revelation. As someone with a background in web design, I see prompts in a way that’s much like piecing together HTML elements. It’s all about clear directives and purpose, where every element plays its part.

I do a lot of reading about issues close to my heart. This article says a lot about what's going on inside my heart, my head, and my life. Read into it as you like and will. I have realised over the last few years that emotional integrity is about what you do - or... Continue Reading →
