I have a number of projects in the works at the moment. In terms of writing the prinicipal project is a two volume collection of essays the first volume (as yet untitled) includes essays on a wide variety of subjects, largely autobiographical in name. A few of the titles are 'The Comics of Childhood', 'Jack's Problem with Hitchcock', 'The Poetics of Space' and 'The Purple Rose of Juvenilia' there's also a fair bit on theatre my experiences with RAT Theatre a highly experimental physical theatre company of yesteryear and Volcano Theatre Company of a similar ilk and who are still going strong.
The second volume is at the moment entitled Orwell, Two Guinea Pigs, A Cat and Goat: The History of Britain Essays' and has the unwieldly partly to indicate it's pou-pourri nature of subject and because a number of the essays were first published in a magazine called 'The History of Britain'. However I may give volume one the first half of the title!
The essays in volume two are roughly chronologically ordered begin with an essay on Rome followed by one on ancient Wales and includes my previously published 'Alt Clut: The Kingdom of the Rock' about a little known kingdom once dominant in the north of Britain. But the scope is broad and other subjects include Tom Paine, World War's I and II, Mahatma Gandhi, George Orwell and the Ku Klux Klan.
