New blog

With the residency now over, I've decided to start a new main blog. There'll be no further postings on this site, even though it'll remain online for reference.

Go to http://timwright.typepad.com.

Teeside talk

Went to Teeside University to talk to students about Oldton and digital writing. Only three of them turned up because my session clashed with a Photoshop tutorial. Kinda tells you everything you need to know about content vs technology ;-(

The site looked bloody awful because their machine wasn't reading my CSS file. It is dawning on me that my site may well look like a bloody mess to a lot of people because I haven't scripted things properly. Back to the drawing board...

Oldton goes live

I'm happy to say that the full site for In Search of Oldton is now online at http://www.oldton.com.

Of course, the work is not over. Only this morning I received another postcard, and I'm hoping contributions will keep coming in.

I now also have to sort out getting the packs of cards printed.

Disappeared into Oldton

So maybe William Gibson was right that writing a blog whilst also trying to write a creative piece of work is a bit like 'trying to boil a kettle with the lid off'.

A long summer holiday on a remote Croatian island, and a big push to finally complete In Search of Oldton has caused me to cease blogging for a while.

Normal service will now be resumed.
