work was soooo slow today, and then i came back from lunch and there was stuff to do! exciting.

What I just finished reading:
as simple as hunger, by d des anges, aka apiphile, which i liked a lot. just don't ask me what it's about, because aside from "politics and love and friendship and giant scorpions", i'm not sure i could explain it. (i actually

I LOVED the writers and their spaces link! I subscribe to Stampington's "Where Women Create" because it is total space porn - https://stampington.com/where-women-create I've always loved Nick Cave in his grotto writing "And the Ass Saw the Angel" -

i'm a huge fan of artists' spaces in general, but writers' spaces make me wish i had my own, uh, space. a room of my own. :D (i mean, "sitting on the couch" doesn't exactly count.) i love that pic of nick cave, but it looks like he wrote in a box!

coincidentally, i saw this on a writer's blog: a chamber of screams of one's own, which is about... finding a writing space you can work in. (i assume the screaming is optional.) (and also not your own screams.)

i am writing, in fact! altho it's either next year's bigbang (because why wait) or a ~sekrit project~, and i can't share either of those yet. i've been thinking about nano, tho, and am always up for prompts. are you doing nano? what are you thinking? or is that why you need prompt warm-ups?

I still can't face rereading Discworld books now. I thought I was ready for this, and then a late eulogy/personal piece showed up in my feed at work and and I nearly drowned in grief? So you're braver than I am. I remember loving Small Gods, though, and I've not read it in a long long time. Hrm.

fortunately it's as good as i remember, which helps. altho i think discworld books age well, so i wasn't expecting a disappointing reread. i'm sorry you ran into a late eulogy, tho. :( i'm guessing you were unprepared for all the feels.

The feels are like, idk, a frozen explosion, man. I keep trying to avoid them but sooner or later I'm gonna have to have a good cry. He/his work was a big part of my life. I'd not have half the friends I do now or anything like the moral compass had I not read them.
