It’s getting worse.
Maybe it is part of a coming-of-age thing.
And we don’t mean a John Hughes type coming-of-age thing.
But…
The transitioning from being a middle-aged man into a proper old man and all the bitter and jaded thoughts that come with it.
But…
This time of year, with the darkness encroaching all around us, I seem to retreat further into my even darker thoughts and views. As in the hopes and vigour of youth are long lost. I acknowledge, my underlying negativity, has been the driving force of much of the work that I have done in my life.
But…
I have attempted to harness much of this even darker negativity and jaded thoughts into a novella by one of my other selves – as in William E. Drummond. This novella has the title of Why is Andy Warhol Shite?
The premise of Why is Andy Warhol Shite? is several hundred questions that haunt me most nights when I wake up at 3:17am.
But…
That is only half of the novella, the other half is made up of answers I am hoping that others can offer to my questions, in the hope these answers can keep these troubling questions returning night after night.

In the meantime, a season’s greetings and hope those Snowdrops will not be long in coming.
