I don’t really write fiction. At least fiction that sees the light of day ….

🔗 The Letter is an exception. Published yesterday on BizCatalyst.

I decided to 🖇️ narrate it in the latest episode of BUNKER-19.


Just in case we forget.

🎛️ A Snicklecast: Work-Life Balance … The Unsolvable Equation

Working towards work-life balance solves the wrong problem really well.

But I realised something else last night …


I had never heard of Frank Ramsey until today - and now I feel as if I have known him all my life.

”Discounting the interests of future people, Ramsey wrote, is “ethically indefensible and arises merely from the weakness of the imagination.”
