Welcome to what must be at least the tenth incarnation of my site. It’s a little rough but it will evolve.

After a long time of not writing any piece longer than 140 characters—albeit over 37,000 such pieces in 3 years—I find that I once more have the desire to write in the longer form. Perhaps it’s a time-of-life thing, for I notice that I’ve begun to look back over my life and also forward to when I’m no longer here. I have felt numb, but now there are things that are important and that I care about.

Firstly though, I shall be focussing on finding work. I used to do Oracle database development for large corporations; I was pretty bloody good at it. Lately I do freelance Website management: everything from coding a WordPress theme to setting up an online store. Working from home on my own schedule makes life with kids much, much easier. But the work is more sporadic and less lucrative than I would like. I’ve therefore decided it is time to get more serious: I am establishing a full-service business, likely aimed at industry and trades.

In the meantime, I am available for hire.
