Not VERY sick luckily (and have no one to blame but myself for drinking too much coffee/not enough water while itā€™s hot here), but Iā€™ll still use it for a helpful literary guilt trip where I can šŸ˜†

I confess I mostly opted for bard because that's what I'm playing in the family D&D game and I was like, "welp, at least I won't have to learn my character's stuff on top of all the other party members' abilities and spells"! The face skills have proved verrrry useful so far though.

I am, cruelly, going to demand that you read this even though you wonā€™t be able to read the rest of it for two months, and that WILL feel like too long to wait. But you will. Because you have to.

Travel always totally cooks my brain because on top of finding it impossible to sleep on airplanes, I ALSO don't sleep for at least the last night before traveling, while my brain goes through the lists of things I could have forgotten.

Okay, but ONLY as long as you also purloin the "cancer-free" epilogue too.

The drugstore stopped carrying the deodorant that I'd gotten used to using so I had to pick a new one and now it constantly smells like there's a stranger standing right behind me.

The problem with saying that I'll treat myself to a quick chapter of @kerstinhall.bsky.social's "Asunder" before getting back to work is that then I HAVE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT and suddenly I've read 6 chapters and it's 5:30 and my spouse is home and I have to "eat" "dinner" with my "family"

I just finished @lmanusos.bsky.social's forthcoming novella From These Dark Abodes (from @psychopomp.bsky.social). It's creepy and mysterious (the kind of superb mystery I just can't put down!). And when the mystery unfolds...It did not disappoint!

Can't wait for this one to be out in the world!

I also came into the comments to say how much I ADORE that production. Both leads have terrific instincts for physical comedy, itā€™s great. I think I was able to rent it through the National Theatre but that was several years and one computer ago so Iā€™m not 100% sure.

I saw someone else recommended House in the Cerulean Sea, which would also be on my list for you then; itā€™s also been a hot minute since I read The Midnight Bargain by CL Polk so I canā€™t say much for sure about the worldbuilding load but I DO remember loving it!

An oldie but a goodie is Howlā€™s Moving Castle; thereā€™s also Swordheart and the Paladin books by T. kingfisher which have nice lived-in-feeling but never (for me anyway!) overwhelming worlds and characters?
