A Novel in a month?! |
In the month of November, I posted a picture on my Instagram and my Facebook, with a super excited face, about being part of some strange thing called Nanowrimo. I figured it was time for an update and give a little explanation about my Nanowrimo experience. |
I heard about Nanowrimo sometime in 2015 but I didn’t feel I was ready to take on such a daunting task at that point in my life. When it came to writing that amount of words, (50k to be exact), it made me cower in the dark corner of my brain. Since, I’ve heard about it, I’ve been working on trying to write something ev... |
I signed up, looked around the website, (www.nanowrimo.org) and took my time trying to get acquainted with it. The first task the page asks is for you to sign up and make a profile. Easy peasey, Unbecoming Jayne is already my thing. But, then I needed a name and some information about my novel that wasn’t even written ... |
How’d I do, you ask? Did I finish my 50k word novel in a month? No, I didn’t. Yes, I was pretty disappointed about it. I said I was shelfing my book. One time I even yelled at the peaceful dinner table that I wanted to burn it in the back yard. It was a random outburst and it made everyone at the table uncomfortable. S... |
So with all that, yes, I plan to keep doing Nanwrimo every year. I think it is a great community for writers. And yes I have a novel in the works and Yes, I think you all should sign up for it and plan to do it with me next year. 🙂 I’ll post the link here again you know, just in case you decide to click it and signup ... |

Robyn may just be one of the most unorthodox electronica acts today. Since dropping 2010’s Body Talk in two divided parts –both well received and critically acclaimed, then pulling off a third part in the form of an EP all in the same year, the Swedish dance-pop star refuses to play by the rules. 2014’s one-time pair u... |
Lush is making available today the ‘Turtle’ jelly bomb. I love it! It’s made in the same pine, Cypress, sandalwood and seaweed scent as their retro ‘Geophyzz’ bath bomb. So cute. They have little agar agar (seaweed) bits inside them made to look like plastic to represent their plight with ingesting plastic in our ocean... |

This outstanding range of leg irons comes from the China Xinshidai Company. What an extensive range, and nothing short of excellent quality. The Harrington and Richardson inspired handcuffs (the only design we stock) are a very special, very high quality product. I am at a loss to imagine how the original design was, a... |
On the other end of the spectrum is the range of very austere leg irons which, despite their rather severe appearance are extremely high security with difficult to pick tumbler type locks. |
This research project investigates how college students conduct research. The original pilot project was conducted at St. Mary's College in California; the research is now being conducted by the iSchool at the Univ. of Washington with support from Proquest using samples from different college campuses from across the U... |
Some of the more interesting results from this project (beyond where students find information), I think, are the findings that students struggle with understanding what college research is, what faculty expect, and that faculty (in their samples) offer little guidance to students about expectations. |
Although not specifically information literacy, Carol Kuhlthau has been doing research on student information seeking behavior for over 20 years, resulting in the development of the information search process model. The model is a holistic view of information seeking (or the research process) with affective (feelings),... |
The last stage in the ISP is presentation, which is often (traditionally) where the writing process is identified so that information seeking and writing/communication are separated. But I think James Elmborg was right in his call for the research and writing processes to be taught holistically. Kuhlthau's emphasis on ... |
Kuhlthau's research, I think, represent the only studies that have attempted to understand the feelings and thoughts associated with each stage of the process so that we hopefully can identify strategies to help students along. Combined with the PIL findings about students confusion about what college research is and w... |
I heard an interview on the radio last week where they were identifying the difficulties inherent in job hunting. One of the issues they raised was how much this exercise costs. A recent study undertaken by UCT says it costs on average, R550-00 per month to actively seek employment in South Africa. |
Having worked in the recruitment and training industry for most of my career, I have come to appreciate the challenges experienced by those seeking employment. This, however, is the first time I’ve heard the financial aspect quantified and it made me sit up in my seat - that’s a lot of money to many people, expended wi... |
In a country where most people are living month to month, many of whom rely on grants or pensions as a sole source of income, the cost of job seeking can be prohibitive. |
Everyone involved in the recruitment process needs to be aware of the stresses related to being unemployed in an employer’s market and adapt processes wherever possible. Any suggestions? |
Having said this, I have read a number of posts on LinkedIn where consultants report giving candidates money to cover travel costs. In one post, the recruitment agency had clubbed together to buy a suitable outfit for the applicant. I was blown away. This truly is Ubuntu at its best. It’s simply not sustainable though. |
1. The candidate needs to have a CV which is both comprehensive and professional. For many of us, this is easily done. But consider those who haven’t had the benefit of work experience, don’t have access to mentors or people who can assist in compiling this vital document. In addition to this, many fellow South African... |
2. Access to the internet is essential in order to find out what positions are available: an ongoing cost. |
3. In order to get to the internet cafes, they incur travel costs there and back. |
4. Once the CV is compiled, it has to be printed off because many companies want original copies: paper and printing – a further cost. |
5. Travelling around to drop off original CV’s – extremely costly and time consuming. |
6. Attending the initial interview is often just one step in the process. Usually there are second or third interviews: more travel costs and time. |
7. Those who are only contactable by cell phone need to ensure they have minutes and data on their phones in order to make and receive calls/messages. |
8. For students in particular, they have to buy suitable outfits so as to project the right image. |
9. If the job seeker is working as a temp somewhere, they don’t get paid when they’re off and can even lose their temp positions – a sole source of income. |
10. English is the language of business. We know that. Now consider for a moment how difficult it is to compile a readable document, cover letter and handle an interview in your second or third language. Many people are forced to pay consultancies to do this for them. |
These are just a few of the hurdles faced by people to whom R550-00 a month could mean the difference between having food on the table and going hungry. All these combine to render job seeking a formidable exercise. |

Entertainment Weekly: "Treme, the new drama from the creator of The Wire, David Simon, captures a musical culture in a way that's unlike anything that has ever been done on television or in the movies... Hoo boy, are you going to have fun watching this." |
Variety Blog: "Oh my goodness, Treme is good. Engrossing. Breathtaking in all its detail. The first episode runs about an hour and a half. It lives up to the advance billing, and the high expectations of Wire nuts." |
Baltimore Sun: "As the camera pulled up and back for its final overhead shot of the funeral procession passing boarded-up homes alongside a cemetery in deep decay, I just sat there in front of the screen enthralled - oblivious to everything else.I don't know why. But I do know that I have reacted with such intensity fe... |
Variety selbst ist etwas skeptischer und vermisst zunächst Übersicht und Tempo: "By the second hour, however, relationships become clearer, characters begin crossing into each other's orbits and a loose rhythm begins to coalesce. It's as if the producers have sought to approximate jazz phrasings for a TV audience weane... |
Die Newsweek-Kritik dagegen ist negativ: "Treme is neither as intimate as The Corner nor as vast as The Wire. It feels as if it wants to be a smaller-scale story about the people who had their lives washed away, but Simon doesn't treat his characters like people as much as walking ambassadors for the most esoteric deta... |

The Deer Creek Trail is, without a doubt, not the best trail in Maryland. It’s probably not even the best in Susquehanna State Park. But there is at least something soothing about the surroundings on this largely wooded loop hike, situated just off the Susquehanna River in northeast Maryland. Here lofty trees, many dev... |
Susquehanna State Park is relatively convenient for passersby on Interstate 95, situated about halfway between Baltimore, Maryland and Wilmington, Delaware. (Note: Take Exit 89 to Havre de Grace/Churchville.) A number of country roads converge on the park, but it is Rock Run Road that cuts through the heart of the pres... |
At around the hike’s highest point, the trail forks again, with a short spur heading right to the base of a gargantuan white oak tree, while the main path—now a narrow single-track—continues straight. From here, the trail tracks downhill into a ravine that feeds the Elbow Branch of Deer Creek. Stay right at the two for... |
Cutting sharply right, the trail descends in force, eventually crossing a small wooden bridge at 9/10 miles. What goes down must come up, and the Deer Creek Trail from here begins a sequence in which it climbs in and out of several small gullies. By 1.2 miles, the path has almost doubled back on itself, but then quickl... |
Around 1.25 miles from the start, the Deer Creek Trail flanks its main attraction on the left: the award-winning American beech tree. This hulking mass was a “Maryland Big Tree Champion,” meaning it was—at one point—the largest recorded tree of its species. Alas, it appears the beech has been bested in recent years, as... |
Beyond the beech, the Deer Creek Trail continues on its sharp declivity, finally abating at around 1.4 miles. Here the path rounds a right-hand bend and passes a spur that leads down to the Deer Creek Pumping Station, visible downhill to the left. It is around this point that the trail’s namesake stream also comes into... |
Heading northeast, the trail drops to clear a ravine then begins a steady climb, reaching nearly the top of a woody knoll before it descends again. Look for the remains of a short rock wall on the left at around 1.8 miles, a testament to the early settlers of the Susquehanna River area. At two miles, the path forks aga... |

Oh hey there sugar pies, and welcome to HannahGale.co.uk. |
So, whaddya wanna know about me? |
I’m a twenty-seven-year-old ex-digital editor and journalist, turned full-time blogger, vlogger and general social media animal. Because where’s the fun in producing content for someone else, when you can just produce content on your own site, eh? |
I’ve owned HannahGale.co.uk since my Kingston Uni days, but only really delved into the blogging world head-first in 2014. |
Since then I’ve written nostalgic lists about growing up in the noughties, shared the deepest, darkest corners of my brain in posts about mental health, and covered everything from fave ASOS buys to beauty hauls to tasty recipes. |
