The Old Hack

A space for a middle aged writer to massage his ego

More About This Website

This blog is a continually evolving site. I had originally intended it to be a forum for other writers to share. To read some of my stuff and to deposit their own. I'm glad to say that a number of you still come by and look at my writing, but sadly nobody seemed to want to take the plunge and deposit their own literary endeavours. For that reason I am (at least temporarily) no longer inviting writers but will, of course, still welcome your comments and observations - the more the merrier. See also the section 'Titbits from elsewhere' where I occasionally publish bits and pieces I have come across while browsing and which have caught my interest and/or imagination. I have just started a new page about property in France. That is my 'day job' here in the beautiful Charente and as I'm paying to maintain this site I may as well use it commercially. You can read more of my stuff at Helium.com, where I write when I can, and you can find some other Helium Bloggers here. Keep coming back to see what's new. You're most welcome.

A Couple of Updates

I recently joined a site called GoodBlogs in order to try to promote this blog a little more efficiently. You will see an icon at the bottom left of each page of the site. Also shown are some random links to other blogs. Now I don't want you to think that The Old Hack is cynical in any way, but I do have to say that Goodblogs are not necessarily good in everyone's eyes. Please bear with me while I toy with some of these technologies, and if they irritate you too much, let me know and I may adjust my thinking.

Also wanted to let you know that I have obtained a second hand copy of Enigma's 'Mea Culpa' Part II (Tout est aux Mieux). My daughter thought it was odd that I had never encountered it before. I recommend it. It is both haunting and addictive. If anyone knows where I can get Part One, please let me know.
