Misaligned Expectations. Top Story - February 2025.
Post-COVID there feels as though there is a level of expectation that sits at the heart of the nation (England). Every time I walk down the road I need to move out of the way of other human beings as they are more important than me.

How Accepting My Emotions Changed My Life. Top Story - January 2025.
I used to hurt myself. My feelings were so out of control that self-harm seemed like the only answer. It was also the answer to emptiness that plagued me when I didn’t know how to cope. Pain was better than nothing.

A Photo With A View. Top Story - January 2025.
Imagination is sometimes like a dream or a waking moment, a bit of inspiration to guide us. It's like an idea that suddenly appears in our mind, a utility in reach, an embedded notion. We think it or we visualize it. Sometimes we might capture it by a drawing, a painting, a piece of writing, or a song.

The People That Shape You. Top Story - January 2025.
When I was in my twenties and thirties, I was an English teacher at a high school in Staffordshire in England. Previous to this, I had been performing administrative posts and wondering what the hell was I going to do?

What's Going On With J. Delaney-Howe?. Top Story - December 2024.
This piece will be slightly different from what I usually write, although there hasn't been much writing. I'm just going to share some things that have been going on in my life: things I am feeling and concerned about. There will be plenty of run-on sentences, and that's okay. This piece isn't for grammar technicality. I may bounce around a little bit, but it will always come together at the end. So, will this probably be a one-sided conversation? I don't know what it is, and it doesn't matter. This is my story of the last 6 months of my life, good and bad. So stick with me- this could be a good ride!
