Thursday 27 Oct

 I wasn't feeling too well this morning. Brighter late morning. I filed most of my paperwork.

This afternoon, I previewed next weeks studies.

Now, I'm simply playing around on my Chromebook while listening to Jeff Wayne's 'War of the Worlds'. You can watch and listen too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6FOJ2z3FL0

I must write more poetry and short stories. I'll make a start this afternoon.

Watch this space!

This afternoon, I've been working out how to put audio on my website. I want to record my poems and have an audio player next to each poem. The poems will be recorded as an mp3 file. I've found the HTML coding to put a player onto a web page. I needed an mp3 recording to play, so I downloaded the BBC News music. I've combined these and as an experiment have uploaded it onto my 'FREEWRITING' page. Clever, innit?! All that's left to do is to record the poems, upload them along with the poetry page! I'll try recording them tomorrow.
