The Hands That Don’t Forget
I am writing this story because the UK Government and care industry are now seriously exploring robots in social care. With more than 130,000 vacancies across adult care, the government believes technology and automation could be one of the solutions. Robot assistants are being tested to help at home — lifting, feeding, reminding about medicine, and offering night-time support. This sounds exciting, modern and efficient, But are we forgetting what care truly means?

No More National Novel Writing Month. Top Story - November 2025.
For many years now, in November, I would write 50,000 plus words for National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo). Each day, I would write. It wasn't important to edit as I wrote, because I knew in a month or two it would be time to edit.

A Community in Need: The Truth Behind the Silence
The community I live in is changing, not in the way many think. On the surface, it appears to be progress, new apartments, renovated homes, and rising property values. Outsiders view the Jersey Shore as a destination for summer fun, tourism, and economic growth. But behind those freshly painted walls and tourist attractions lies a truth too often ignored, my community is being gentrified.
