Hello, Internet! Just gonna hop into it. Reading So last week I set a focus on reading The Silk Roads by Peter Frankopan, and then The Dragon's Legacy and The Forbidden City by Deborah Wolf. I've gotten through The Silk Roads, and I'll mostly be talking about that this week. I'm also about a third of the way through The Dragon's … Continue reading Weekly Update – 5/23/18
Hello, Internet! Been a while, hasn't it? Some days (weeks, months) life catches up on you in an unexpected way. Between editing, school stuff, work stuff (the "pays the bills" kind of work) and family stuff, I've struggled to find time to hammer out a bit of blather on the blog. So unsurprisingly, I do … Continue reading This Is A Post
Sorry all, no post this week. Busy editing.
Hello, Internet! This week's been alright. I'm feeling OK about how things have gone. Before I dig too into it, though, I'd like to highlight a cool tool I found online - Inkarnate.com. It's an in-browser program that lets you build nifty maps. It's easy to use, and has a free version and a yearly … Continue reading Weekly Update – 4/18/18
Hello, Internet! This week's been a bit of a mixed bag, I think. I've done a ton of reading, but I haven't spent the time I'd like on my writing. Reading My plan last week was to be reading from Ursula LeGuin's Planet of Exile and Walter Burket's Greek Religion. I've done a lot of reading this … Continue reading Weekly Update – 4/11/18
Hello, Internet! Sometimes a book, TV show, or series of films enters my life. Occasionally it's expected (or half-expected). More often, it's a pleasant surprise. In any case, it almost always derails what I had in mind for my immediate future. Such was this week. Reading This week, I spent much of my time reading The … Continue reading Weekly Update – 4/4/18
Hello, Internet! This week's been fairly successful, I'd like to think. Not a lot of reading done, but plenty of writing. Turns out games can be work, too! Reading This past week, I've continued to spend time reading from my anthology of Ursula LeGuin's science fiction novels. I'm still chipping away at Planet of Exile, the … Continue reading Weekly Update – 3/28/18
Hello, Internet! It has been a week. That is accurate. Reading This past week, I finished re-reading Tolkien's The Hobbit, and I've begun the next book in my anthology of Ursula LeGuin's science fiction, Planet of Exile. I'm not sure I have any new and thrilling insights about The Hobbit this week. The only thing which particularly stuck … Continue reading Weekly Update – 3/21/18
Hello, Internet! Sorry for the skip last week. I work nights and have a fair amount of unstructured time, so I usually write. However, last week work (and life) caught up on me a bit. Many apologies! While I still didn't meet my goals from two weeks ago, I have continued to chip away at my … Continue reading Weekly Update – 3/14/18
Hello, Internet! I'm gonna go ahead and rate this past week as an O.K. I got things done, but didn't get a lot of things done. At the same time progress is progress, and while I'm not satisfied, I'm not upset with the last week's work either. Reading This past week I've been re-reading The Hobbit. In … Continue reading Weekly Update – 2/28/18
