Meet Hugh – Updated November 2025

Hello, and a warm welcome to my blog.

My name is Hugh. I live in Swansea, South Wales, in the United Kingdom (not to be confused with England).

My blog covers a broad range of subjects, with my blogging tips posts being the most popular. Since I started this journey in February 2014, I have learned a great deal about the world of blogging. All the tips and advice I offer are free.

I have always enjoyed writing. Although I have a mild form of dyslexia, it has not hindered my passion for writing.

Blogging has connected me with hundreds of other writers, many of whom have been supportive and have assisted me with my writing. Thank you to all of you.

More about Hugh

I lead a happy life and always remain positive. I share my life with John, my civil partner, and our two Cardigan Welsh Corgis, Toby and Austin.

Some of my short stories and flash fiction are available on my blog. I hope you enjoy reading them. Flash fiction has become a significant part of my writing, and I take pleasure in participating in various writing challenges.

Remember – Blogging is a marathon, not a sprint!
