Preorders, sales, promotional graphics, oh my!
You may wonder what in the world I have been up to lately, and let me say - a lot. April is a rollercoaster and I'm not strapped in. Please expect me to be absolutely mad over here. Currently, I'm preparing to leave for Salt Lake City (or rather, its environs) where I am attending... Continue Reading →
The Shape of Water: women and sex
I've had some time to think about The Shape of Water, which I saw a few weeks ago, and I have decided the thing that most impressed me about the film was not the beautiful composition, nor the aesthetic, nor, even, the commentary on how society attempts to break the outsiders among us into something...

You would think that, being stressed, I would engage directly with my stressors and then take my time to enjoy books, but not. I've just been... Continue Reading →
Your infrequent inspiration update

For now, I wanted to bring you up to speed on some of the fun things I've read and watched... Continue Reading →
