With disappointment I’m announcing that next week’s WB submission will be my last for this year. This is primarily due to the fact that I feel like I need to stop making work for a while and take stock of my situation. Coming into 2014, things were looking pretty good and much quieter than the preceding years which were filled with lots of (frankly, too many) projects – which, whilst being hugely rewarding at times - presented an enormous strain on my mental health and each year tended to end with a tumultuous burn out. I’m in a similar situation at present, and whereas distractions and routine would normally keep the allegorical Black Dog at bay, it’s not working out so much on the creative end of things. This year’s WB has been a fantastic experience for me and I’m very pleased with a majority of the tracks I’ve presented over the 20 odd weeks; with some of this material pointing out some future directions. I’m enjoyed immensely the supportive community here and all of the feedback that has been offered on my work has been greatly appreciated. I’ve done my best to listen to as much work by others here as well and enjoyed a great deal of it. I’ll check back in from time to time as the rest of you strive for the magic number of 52. Now I’ll have a lie down.
Peas and love,
TLR
