"we are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well
that death will tremble to take us" - Charles bukowski
My about me...
My about me... My name is Gordon Connolly; aged fifteen, I launched The BlueBerry Press and then expanded into Genesis Publishing & Leaflets in Print. I then purchased several cinemas and formed Nodrog Entertainment Ltd., and BlueBerry Studios. I lived and worked in London & Los Angeles and now The Cotswolds. Throughout all this I was writing novels, poems & screenplays. It is only recently that I have begun to enter my writing into competitions and online publications. I created this website to share my journey. my latest project...1st October, 2024
I am currently working on a new collection of poetry inspired by the recent crop of television shows featuring naked strangers. This seems to be a form of accelerated intimacy rather than intimacy earned through time and effort and patience?

Over the years I have shopped in designer stores all over the world and I could never bear to part with the gorgeous gift bags my purchases came in. This year, I finally got around to having some of them framed and hung on my walls.
These are the latest additions... 1st January, 2024
my adopted mantra...
FROM: The Torture Garden, by Octave Mirbeau, first published in 1899.
"...following the twin trails of desire and depravity to a shocking, sadistic paradise - a garden in China where torture is practiced as an art form - a dissolute Frenchman discovers the true depths of degradation beyond his prior bourgeois imaginings.".
