I added 5 minutes to my daily writing session and that somehow doubled my word count. I def thought the 15-minute flow state thing was overrated but maybe it’s real?! #WriteSky #WIP

16/100 📚 📜 📖: The Dawn of Everything by David Graeber & David Wengrow Genre: History, Politics Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 Thoughts: It’s like if as a kid you had 2 weird uncles & one night you made the mistake of asking how inequality started, so they told you the longest most fascinating bedtime story ever.

Just read “Seven Thieves” by @emmaliawrites.bsky.social in this sci-fi collection. It’s my favorite of the bunch so far. #BookSky

11/100 📚 🌾 📖: The Mighty Red by Louise Erdrich Genre: Contemporary, Literary Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 Thoughts: I did not want this book to end. Sure it didn’t all make sense, but Erdrich crafts such painfully human characters, and puts them in such silly yet resonant scenarios. #BookSky #LouiseErdrich

The guy the “persecuted Christians” in the US voted for is deporting people who fled actual anti-Christian persecution.

Aaaand it was… 8/100 📚 👽 📖: The Three Body Problem by Cixin Liu Genre: Sci Fi, Thriller Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/4 Thoughts: Hard sci fi delivered at the pace of a crime thriller, with lots of cool Chinese historical references. I wish I understood science so I could appreciate it fully.

This. Absolutely, this. All the disabilities, visible, invisible, whatever. This.
