Not much to report from this past week. Many distractions intruded into my life and left not much room for relaxing and enjoying the little things. Like sleep. And silence.
Reading
Just before this post went live I finished Tim Marshall‘s excellent Prisoners of Geography. The ideas therein will be quite helpful for the world building phase of my current work-in-progress.
Writing
I didn’t write much this past week. Work tasks, an unexpected power outage, and cat drama used up most of my free mental energy.
Subject: Spiritual Beings, Cyborgs
Setting: Library
Genre: Procedural
Listening
After discovering that Soul Coughing is touring again, I went back and revisited some of their tracks. They are still excellent!
