04 July. I’ve decided to remove My Comments of previous months, the whole idea of My Comments is for me to ground where I am in the present and for the next day or so, it’s nothing to do with what went on last week or whatever. And it’s to give potential collaborators a glance at what I’m about today not yesterday. Anyway, I was on the day job on Tuesday and I actually found it really upsetting, it’s so frustrating that there isn’t any space for a private conversation nowadays, such is life. I completed my forth 300 page notebook last night, that’s potentially over a thousand ideas for a lyric! I’ve not keyed them into the pc as yet, I need to get this place at least near the way I want it to be and then introduce it to the World. My writing is continuing at a pace, the major reason being that I’m not assessing and developing what I’ve written, as said, that will happen in due course. I’ve written a short narrative for each of the tabs, been meaning to do it for ages, motivation is really difficult just now. 06 July. It’s nearing 5pm UK time and yesterday and today I have been typing in the contents of the first notebook, it’s job done a wee while ago, my eyes I have to confess are stinging staring at the pc screen. It’s dated 27th February to 27th April; I started on the second notebook, just completed that day. The contents have a lot for me to work on, the folder A6 has 148 items and whilst I was typing them in I was considering what I should copy and paste to B6, it has 99 items. When I’ve previously said a 300 page notebook it’s obviously only got the use of 150 since I don’t use the other side of the page. What I found is there are one hell of a number of lyrics that are all focused on this one individual, they’ll develop like all the other lyrics, but they won’t find a place here as they are personal, I’m surprised at the number, but that was clear where my mind was at the time, perhaps my mind is still on that one person, yeh it is, but that’s fine, it’s creative writing. A lot of they said lyric ideas I can perhaps remove the personal, don’t really want to do that; on a conflict there, not for the first time, but a lot of the lyrics that are presently in the personal folder of Generation E are the best I’ve written and can never be found here. I would really like to get the opinions of the individual they have been written for, and get thoughts; but that will never happen. Yes I could amend and remove the personal elements but I’m really loath to do that, they stand as they are. 26 July. I’ve been wanting to make a comment for some time, kept putting it off because for too long I’ve been undecided on where I’m going. I decided to type in the four notebooks of 150 lyrics (it states 300, but that’s using both sides which I don’t). The four notebooks have been inputted to different folders – A6, A7, A8 And A9. Whilst I was typing the lyrics into they folders I was assessing what I could copy to the B generation. A6 has 148 lyrics and I’ve assessed to B6 99 lyrics. A7 has 149 and I’ve copied 89 to B7. A8 has 152 and there’s 109 in the B8 folder. And finally, A9 has 150 lyrics with me having copied 88 lyrics. I’ve actually assessed B6 and B7 and C6 has 60 lyrics and C7 48 lyrics. Still got C8 and C9 to create and do. So I’ve been busy but there’s always so much to damn do. The campaign site was taking up too much time, I’ve archived too many files which I’ve not posted, I’ve closed the site down in that I’m no longer doing any work on it, far too time-consuming; I do intend going back to it at some point if there’s the time, we shall see, I’m paying to keep the site going. I’ve got an old-fashioned metal filing-cabinet which I’ve had since before I was homeless and my ex kept it for me, well she probably wanted shot of it, the contents I had boxed and kept with my sister. And so I’ve once again emptied the thing and I have plenty of CDs and DVDs to look through which I shall be doing when I have the lyrics to the C generation. I’ve got a lot of ideas or germs for a novel and I want to develop that; the contents of the discs has scanned ideas for a novel which I was working on some years ago; I need to take this forward. Okay, I’m looking at assessing B8, I’d better get on with it.
