An aging ham ponders life
The ever growing continuation of Part 3. I was asked a curious question today, which I will post without edit. I've never really wanted to kill myself, I just didn't think there was any way out of the current situation other to end my life. Is that how you saw it? To escape the environment...

A continuation from Part 2. Well that was rather dark. A bit like the middle episode of a trilogy, the second part gets a little depressing. I am glad to say that my early years weren't all doom and gloom. There were some great memories. I took up the clarinet and took part in some... Continue Reading →
Continued from Part 1 - Beginnings First thing, Wow! Barely a day and the response to my last blog post has been rather overwhelming, and very positive. Thank you all. I have been told I am brave, and this is a nice thing to hear. I don't personally see this as brave. More like having... Continue Reading →
I have mentally debated the pros and cons of blogging about my darkest episode in life, and right now, I am questioning why i had to debate it. Recently, very recently, I have become aware of a number of others within my circle of friends, and friends of friends, who are going through, have gone... Continue Reading →
I am not a good blogger. I struggle with things to write about, thinking some things trivial, and others a little too hot to handle. I consider my own life to be mildly interesting at best, and I am one who prefers to not publicly complain about too much, while I don't want to appear... Continue Reading →
On the 15th of January, I was given the privilege of attending the preview night for Black Swan’s Venus in Fur, written by David Ives and directed by Lawrie Cullen-Tait, at the Perth State Theatre. I didn’t know much about the play before hand, and decided not to find out and let the show surprise me.
I recently auditioned for a rather lucrative acting job. My agent put me forward for a key role, which was a rather nice stroke to the ego, let me tell you. So off I trot to strut my stuff and try my luck. I crossed paths with a number of actors with whom I have... Continue Reading →
I have been monumentally distracted recently. I seem to be doing little bits here and there, and I have to say, keeping track of it all is rather exhausting. I find it hard to keep focussed on one thing at a time, so when I have to research something that could have been provided... One... Continue Reading →
I don’t often reblog anything, but this is something different. Apart from the fact that I got to play a small role as a TRG Officer, or the fact that I got to meet Ewan McGregory on set, this movie was a ground-breaking film for the Perth film industry. The first truly main-stream action film for the state. Car chases, gun fights, pyrotechnics, you name it. This is what Perth talent can do people.

Julius Avery returns home for a special Son of Gun ‘Talking Pictures’ session with actor Brenton Thwaites at Luna Leederville, Sunday 12 October at 6.30pm
Son of Gun is the debut feature film of Australian director Julius Avery, whose short film Jerrycan was a Jury Prize winner at the Cannes Film Festival.

Son of Gun (MA 15+) is a smart, edge-of-your-seat heist thriller, both artful and laced with action that palpably gets under your skin with the story of a young man who is drawn into the lawless world of a notorious criminal.
Serving six months for a minor…

Nothing gains you more experience than being chucked in the deep end. Problem is, it is not always a good experience. Certainly not like being able to dip your toes in the pool before you get your knees wet, but then many of us wouldn't do anything if we always did that. Taking the metaphor... Continue Reading →
Reflection of a Ham
