The beautiful and talented Rachel Shelley is in this month's issue of Scotcampus, just released.

Two pages, and some really nice publicity shots too!

Last season of the L Word, on LivingTV2, end March.

Otherwise, I've been a little quiet as I continued to be unwell throughout February, so am only managing to write fairly low key pieces.

Have sent the first few scenes of my play off to my mentor, just waiting to hear back. I'm pretty sure that howver much I'd like to be good, I'm not sure what I've written is, as Miss Brodie would say, la creme de la creme. If you're going to do something, you should do it well. So if I'm not up to par on this whole playwriting lark, I'm not going to keep away at it. Why flog a dead horse? Sadistic purposes most likely, and what are artistic people but gluttons for punishment. The rejection, the public criticism, the poor rates of pay, lack of job security, general frustration. At least I get to work from my bed. Which is comfy compared to any other kind of desk/office set up. Maybe a couch might be particularly comfy... can't beat a duvet though.

Anyway, we're not there yet tho, I've not even heard word back yet.

I've been living vicariously through the achievements of others lately, and have been following closely the Kilimanjaro climb for Comic Relief. Every morning Moyles and the gang have been phoning in to his breakfast show, and the live Twitter updates have taken me through every stumble, muscle pain and ache, including the glorious moment when they reached the top! Except when you've read about the "gruelling" nature of it all, it doesn't sound so glorious really. Ah well, well done to them.

Next month... I have a few ideas for stories for the paper to explore, see what comes of them. Word on the next issue of Source as and when. Cheeriebye,x.
