going home : runrig

In the distant day was dawning
Comes to me the early morning
Something tells me that I’m going home

The brand new sun was shining bright
From the darkness fields of light
Something tells me that I’m going home

Going home
Where the summers coming in
And the moonlight on the river
Shows me where I’ve been

Soft the rain is gently falling
Light across the city morning
I get the feeling that I’m going home

Across the moorland, past the mountains
O’er the rivers beside the new stream
Something tells me that I’m going home

Going home
Where the summers coming in
And the moonlight on the river
Shows me where I’ve been

As the trains rolling nearer
Ah, the feeling just to be there,
Something tells me that I’m going home

Now the skylines reach my eyes
The ridge stands out in highland skies
I just can’t believe I’m going home

Going home

narrative

my narrative is going to be a miixture of lines from my grandads favourite song, and also the song that means alot to me and my family,aswell as some peoms and some self written content.

 

song run rig : going home

peom : tam o shanter

i need to find some other peoms about memories, or quotes about memories.

 

 

 

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

this is another set of photographs i have taken for the memories.

Im not so sure if i like  any of them, theres nothing that is really jumping out to me.

software?

ibook author.

this software is available of the app store, however, it again doesnt provide anything more than just basic scrolling systems.

but there doesnt seem to be any other options.

i just wanted my ebook it have a more of the feel of an app, rather than a book.

software?

adobe digital publishing suite.

this would be a perfect software, however have too pay for the creative cloud membership, which i wouldnt mind if it was only for a month, but  its a years contrat, so this  software is also out of the question.

 

 

software?

I came across a software called Xcode, provided by apple. its an app building software, however, in order to publish apps with apple, you need to be a registered developer, and pay £99 a year.

its just a bit confusing as the software is free, but it looks pretty complicated, so i think i need to find a software thats a bit more user friendly.

 

software?

blurb.com

 

again blurb is a pdf, flip book format, which i dont want for my ebook. it also costs you money to publish it.

there has to be a software out there for designers in order for them to mock up ebooks or apps.

 

software?

issuu.com

could i use issue to publish my ebook, i think it would be an easy opinion, however it doesnt give me the freedom i really want for my ebook. after seeing the possibilities of an ebook, and what can be done, there has to be better software out there.

 

 

interpretation of quote

but pleasures are like poppies spread – happy memories , like a field of newly spread flowers,vivid and full of life. these moments were once full of life and colour.

you seize the flower its bloom is shed – once the time has passed this moment, it is forever dieing, fading and becoming blurry.

or like the snowfall on the river – snow is soft and gentle, white and delicate, like the memories, they float within your mind, forever growing weaker as time passes.

a moment white then melts forever – they are only vivid for a moment, while that moment lasts, and they ae slowly melting away becoming faded as time passes.

 

quote

tam o shanter quote

 

“but plesures are like poppies spread, you seize the flower its bloom is shed,

or like the snowfall on the river, a moment white then melts forever. ”

 

maybe i could split this quote into sections, and use it as the main narrative for the ebook.
