I want to become a Columnist



Ok, you've 'outed me'. I want to become a Columnist. When I started this Blog in January 2012, it was with the sole intention of writing a book, I've done that! I've written 3 volumes of humorous verse on top of that. Now looking back over my recent work and being entertained by it myself, I realise that I want to become a columnist. I've got an opinion and sheesh, don't you know it. This is where I need your help. You've been getting freebies up until now. I need paying gigs to keep me in the writing game. I should be writing a weekly column for a 'snoozepaper' somewhere. A plastic typewriter with outside fireplace, I don't care, I'll write anywhere. I'll write in English and in Welsh with a spellchecker. I'll write for the Barnstaple Bugle or the Glastonbury Gazette. I'm not proud. As long as I can sprinkle the column with rude words, innuendo and good humour we are all winners but I'm not competitive as you know. I won't get on the blower to Charles Foster Kane to ask for a gig so this is where I need YOU to put the Shark Fishing in Wales word out there to the 'glitterati of the literati' world.

"I am the Shark Fisherman of Wales. The rest of you will be spared. Go back to England, and tell them there, that Wales' daughters and her sons are yours no more! Tell them Wales is free"!

So whaddayasay? whaddyasay? Can you and will you put the word around Chicago and Illinois? Will you bring this blog to the attention of your people and say that this geezer, this half man, half fish, is looking to write a weekly column? Thank you! Danke! Diolch!
