I’m baaaccckkk! Yes, the Billagog blog is back!
I hope there are a few readers still out there following this transformation. The blog originated for the trip around Oz but always had a side story of facilitating my need to write.
Well, the need is far from gone and I might as well use the avenue that I created to extend the story of things that continue to provide tales of adventure in my life.
Thus my new novel idea – a drip feed of stories and my next adventure. BTW, novel as in new, versus novel as in long story, which is still to come...
Bear with me as I navigate these waters. The tributaries may lead to exploits of Sydney scenes (where I currently call home), reviews of gigs, music and theatre, or just creative ideas that pop into my ever-churning mind. The goal is that they are interesting and at times even inspiring.
Who recalls the concept of the “choose your own adventure” series which was all the hype in the 80s and 90s? It allowed the reader to decide their own direction. So why not a new concept for this age?
We’re all so busy with the inability to stay focussed long enough to read a novel anymore. What I’m creating here is a “drip feed” of stories like a quote-a-day flip calendar or the app that teaches you a new word. Through Billagog, I’ll give you periodic updates on either a current event, marketing concept or alternating interesting facts. It’s kinda like subscribing to an editorial in the paper where the author gets to drone on about something of interest to them with hopes you are listening.
Ok, so it’s not a new concept. That's the very meaning of a blog. But I still hope you’ll enjoy, be inspired and find creativity in common thoughts!
My favourite yoga teacher ends each session with a quote. I always find it intriguingly appropriate for my life so I thought I would do the same for each blog update. This one started and ended with one in the postcard format and then another here from my Mum –
“I hope each and every one of your days is filled with aha’s.”

Welcome back! It's always great to hear about adventures from down under and beyond.
