Tuesday is the perfect, most excellent day of the week. Mostly because it’s the first time I get to write since before Christmas. When I went on holidays I decided that the first week back would be Arbitrary Admin Week (or Aaw as Rick has been referring to it). This worked remarkably well at stopping […]

It has a sort of interesting […]

This is very… special. Anybody under thirty should maybe only be allowed to watch the first thirty seconds. Anybody older… well, grit your teeth through the excessive cuteness. You can do it. Monkeys wearing pantaloons! Cats in hats! And then… well. And then.

While writing Wizards I keep looking back at Path trying to find similarities, differences, to see where my writing has improved or just changed. Some of those are very clear, and then other things I see and haven’t the faintest idea what it means. Like — my opening paragraphs are getting shorter. The first paragraph […]
