Conscious Entities has gone quiet for some while now. Initially this was due to slowly worsening health issues which I won’t relate in detail; both the illnesses and the treatments involved cause serious fatigue. In November I had to spend three weeks in hospital getting serious antiviral treatment.

In early December I was much better and came back to post something. To my surprise I found that part of my mind just wouldn’t co-operate (a disconcerting experience that might well have been the subject of an interesting post in itself!).

No doubt this is partly due to continuing lack of energy, but I must also admit that some of the energy I do have is currently being siphoned off into writing fiction – I recently dusted off some old short stories wot I wrote, and got placed or shortlisted in a number of competitions. I suspect my subconscious wants to do more of that just now.

I don’t think I’ve said my last word here. But things are likely to remain quieter than they have been over the last sixteen years. In the meantime, if you have been – thanks for reading.
