Bonus Post! Everybody likes a bonus from time to time! In this bonus post I’m collaborating with my best friend, Alex King. He has recently re-launched his blog and chose Social Interaction as his next topic. It’s a massive talking point! Different people have different experiences of it, so I’m chipping in with my own … Read more
Video gaming is one of my longest running hobbies to date; rivalled only by a passion for adventuring/exploring and reading. Although, it could be argued that they are all in the same vein, just one happens in the real world, one in the imagination, and the other in a virtual one. Gaming and my Blog … Read more
The Awareness of Dyspraxia Dyspraxia Awareness Week is upon us once again and our mission continues. As each year passes, dyspraxia gets a little more awareness and attention, which is great! But while its overall ‘awareness status’ isn’t anywhere near that of its cousins dyslexia and autism, it’s getting there steadily. Last year we saw … Read more
Goofy is the focus of this post but before that, a little update. Caught up on all my blog fixes, had a little extra break too, so it’s time I actually jump in and start posting – before I know it another 7 months will pass me by! It is tempting to kick things off … Read more
Originally I was going to tag this on the end of my ‘Is Sayori Dyspraxic’ post, but there wasn’t enough room for it. A fresh post to have a heart-to-heart about my Dyspraxic Characters project is probably better anyway.

“But sometimes when you have a little raincloud in your head a sad poem can help give the raincloud a little hug and make a nice happy rainbow!” ~ Sayori I have added a new character into my potential character list. Because you know what? I think Sayori from Doki Doki Literature Club! could have … Read more
It’s Dyspraxia Awareness Week and there are many people contributing the bits and pieces to help bring dyspraxia into the limelight. I was going to use the news about ‘Doctor Who’ introducing a dyspraxic character as a starting point but I felt by the time this week commenced it would have been old news. When … Read more
I love analogies! I use analogies, similes, and metaphors a lot, mostly in my written projects but occasionally when I talk as well. Explaining situations or a certain topic is something I can find difficult at times and so if I can make a comparison it gets my thoughts across much clearer and easier. These … Read more
Dyspraxic Characters (or really, the lack of Dyspraxic Characters): Dyspraxic characters; where are they? There are certainly many theories of characters that could have Dyspraxia (something I’ve gone into more depth later in this post). Dyslexia, Autism and other disabilities only get a few mentions here and there so it isn’t surprising that Dyspraxia gets completely … Read more
