Daddo: Born to tinker

Some writers say writer’s block doesn’t exist. They say you just have to work harder, by plonking yourself at your desk where you must write and write and write until the good words come. I say bollocks to that. But for fear of offending anyone, it may also be true. 15 Aug 2019

DADDO: Me … superstitious? Not a chance

Superstitions? Yeah, I got a few: nothing I can’t handle. It’s not like I’m headless if I step on a crack in the pavement, see a black cat cross my path or don’t find an east-west facing spot in the golf club carpark on a Saturday morning. 29 Jun 2018
