You can also hear it all and download it for frees here.
This month’s set of songs probably has the most naughty swear words in it. So there’s that. I was also sorting out the...

of songwriting. Every day. Someone could have had a KID in this time. And to those people I say WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO YOURSELF? Kids are noisy.
Here’s the last track in September, and I’ll be sorting out the September album on my Bandcamp this afternoon. No, no, don’t worry, you just sit there. I got this.

This is Ben Goldacre (one of my science/skepticism heroes) talking at TEDGlobal earlier this year.
He writes “Bad Science” — unpicking dodgy scientific claims made by scaremongering journalists, dubious government reports, evil pharmaceutical corporations, PR companies and quacks.
Every day there are news reports of new health advice, but how can you know if they’re right? Doctor...

Day 269 - Work In Progress →
I made a song (click above to hear it). Also, I bought a camera that doesn’t run on ancient twigs like the other one I found in a cupboard did (even though I have no source of fresh money right now - COMMITMENT). I’ll be doing a vlog today or tomorrow full of exciting ideas and confused facial expressions. There are some things. There will be things.

Juniper Grove Interview →
This was a little interview that I did for a book blog so long ago that I forgot I’d even done it. Anyway, it’s just been put up and you can go and read it with your eyes if you’d like.

Spotify Album - Stud Terkel's Wax Museum (Bob... →
This is fantastic. It’s pretty much a long interview/radio session with Dylan when he was still really a kid who was on the brink of making his mark on music history. The interviewer does a great job, and Dylan talks enigmatically, eloquently, and just generally blows my mind. He also plays a bunch of his incredible songs.
If you can, I URGE you to listen to it.

Earth-Shattering Tumblr Updates
Hello, people who’ve chosen to follow me. Is that a new shirt? I’ve had a few Tumblr-based identity crises due to abandoning this one and then setting up my Cooper365 Tumblr and then finding out I couldn’t use it in the way you can a normal Tumblr because it’s an additional blog and there are rules about additional blogs. I can see you’re losing interest already. I...

Even though my debut novel comes out today, I couldn’t neglect my duties to this little project of mine, could I? So today’s song is up. There’s also some exciting video things happening later on, I’ll post things here when that’s done.
I’ve written up a little post explaining how you can enter to win a free signed copy of the book, entries welcome from anyone, anywhere, anyhow (well, not...
