New Blog Name Soon, And Other Stuff
Nov. 14th, 2023 04:47 pmHello everyone. I am going to be changing my blog name soon. I don't know what to but I want to have some consistent "branding" between this and my bluesky that's somewhat separate to my identities elsewhere, and fortunately both allow name changes. But the thing is... it's such a commitment! I've been working on names and talking about them with my partner and friends but I guess the thing is that anything I choose will grow on me rather than be perfect right away, probably.
Other things... I have been sick with a cold the last couple days and took the day off to recover. I've finished Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir, finally. And I feel like, maybe because it's taken me months to get through it, or otherwise, I did not get everything out of it that I needed to. Like I understood the twist, I guess, and some other things, but also, I feel like, generally when reading the book, the blocking, as in, where people are in space, and where anything is in space, physically, is difficult to understand, and it feels like a lot of characters pop in and out of the narrative with little warning. It's hard to tell how much of this is my ADHD wandering-eye-on-the-page versus an actual flaw in the writing, especially on the first readthrough. However, I've already bought Nona The Ninth and will probably give that a go before trying to reread any of the other Locked Tomb books.
