Reading


Pretty much as soon as I posted last week, Still Just a Geek came off hold from the library. I vaguely remember putting it on hold, but I don’t remember when. Before making up my 20 Books of Summer list? Probably. (If I do anything late at night when I’ve had too much to drink, it’s putting in hold requests at the elibrary.)
So, Wil Wheaton’s Still Just a Geek and Persuasion by Jane Austen are this week’s selections. I’m still more or less on track for 20 Books of Summer, even though I didn’t read much over the weekend.
Deal Me In, Week 25
Q♣️ – “And Yet” by A. T. Greenblatt (link)
I’ve been loving what recent authors have been doing with haunted house tropes. “And Yet” might be my favorite thus far, a Nebula nominee from a few years back.
Watching
I try to not binge shows, but I had a pretty bad night of insomnia last week and watched the whole of The Bear in one evening. Granted, it was only eight episodes and many of them only a half hour in length, but still . . . I’m also catching season 8 of Endeavour on PBS.
This week: Wimbeldon!
Goal Check-In
Writing & Entangled Tomes
Last week, I decided to go through my folders and figure out just how many projects I had in progress. Turns out, around two dozen. Among those projects, I found a flash fiction piece which is pretty much finished. I’m going to rewrite it and find potential homes for it this week.
