193 - 2nd Balloon Girl Book

193 - 2nd Balloon Girl Book

Although I put a lot of work into this 2nd Balloon Girl book I consider it a fail. This kind of narrative story isn't my area of expertise. I think it missed the point of Balloon Girl. She just isn't sentimental. She's like the will (the head), struggling with the passive body. She's surreal and novel. I think she should live in a world of the surreal. So I think if / when I bring her back, it will be in little skits which explore her balloony corporality.

But here is a flick through the book.

Thanks Grant. Funnily enough, Estelle sent me a link to a funding opportunity for Immersive Arts yesterday and I think these could make for a strong submission as they are very well developed. I will give it a go.

Love this timeless work and think it could be really successful.

Macmillan Cancer Support

This year I challenged myself to write one blog post per day, for 365 days. The project began on 3 March 2025.

I have linked this challenge to a charity fundraiser, because I want to look outside as well as inwards and contribute to society. It also holds me accountable and adds motivation to write everyday.

Macmillan is an organistation that offers powerful help to anyone (in the UK) who has been affected by cancer.
