For those who have seen it, thoughts on “Poor Things”? I find myself wondering if the baby is male or female, and how that categorisation might affect the film and the protagonist’s perspective & journey.

I inadvertently timed that well. Brazil is two hours ahead of Virginia. So, where everyone else moved the clock one hour ahead and lost an hour of sleep … I flew home from Brazil to Virginia, and went one forward and two backward, gaining an extra hour of sleep !!! Jet lag for the win.

Writing advice: Always carry a small notepad with you. You never know when ideas and snippets might pop into your head. Many of the greatest ideas in the world have likely been lost due to poor memory. 🖋️

Time always seems to pass more slowly in airports. If only we could use "airport time" in other spheres of our lives. 10 minutes airport time feels like about 30-60 minutes normal time (depending on the airport and location of course...)

Note: If you're still looking for holiday gifts for loved ones, buy books. You can also buy books for people you hate. The authors will not mind.

With this being Spotify Unwrapped week let’s take a look at some ‘musical’ Deaths - starting with Death as the drummer from the V&A. Raising two drumsticks above its head, ready to lead the dance of death. The drum is unfortunately missing but Death has a fancy hat. late 17th cent 🗃️ #earlymodern

“She’s not scary, she’s just hungry. Can she come in?” Y’all on bluesky get to see this before everyone else does. I’m so pleased I was able to finally finish this piece, I’ve been sitting on the WIP for almost 2 years now!
