My latest #BookTube is a little unusual. I just couldn’t talk about the book I’m now serially publishing on Patreon (a wartime space opera inspired by Thucydides) without also talking about worldly trauma. To write a book inspired by ancient war, political ego, national myth, & human suffering while moving through today’s versions of the same should remind an author that it’s a privilege to share stories in any form at all.
The rest is but noise.
Bonus sighting of my *very* haggard self after a weekend of immersive editing work! Still more to do on that project, but at least I have a lock on the bigger pieces now.
Hope everyone kept their "body" count this weekend as low or as high as they prefer. (No judgment here, either way!) In general, too, I hope you're all doing well and treating your meat sacks even better. 😘
