Everyday
This will be my 300th post on Vocal and is dedicated to my Muse, without her this would never have happened. Every day I see my Muse and our love just gets stronger . I told her I would never let her go because I will always love her whatever happens, and Buddy Holly’s “Everyday” came to mind.

A True Romantic
My favourite film is True Romance directed by Tony Scott and scripted by Quentin Tarantino. Tarantino then disowned the script for some reason. It was pre-Reservoir Dogs so that may have been something to do with it. Apologies for any mistakes or mis-spellings of names as I am trying to rely on my often faulty memory.

William Hope Hodgson
William Hope Hodgson is a writer who has been compared to Edgar Allen Poe, although I would veer away from that description for a lot of his stories. I have once more picked up on “The House On The Borderland” which is, in my opinion (and that of a lot of other people) a masterpiece of the unnatural supernatural in the realms of Clark Ashton-Smith, Arthur Machen and HP Lovecraft.
