[ Just before sunrise, facing east down Michigan Street at the Union Avenue intersection. ]
This past week was one of the busiest and most hectic weeks of my year, so I didn’t accomplish much that wasn’t work or class or home maintenance.
Reading
Currently reading Norah Lange‘s Notes From Childhood, and it is gorgeous!
Writing
I have changed the name of the MC in my WIP to Thomas, because “Cacophonous Thomas” rolls off the tongue so nicely. Bob, as a protagonist name, is just a little too generic.
Subject: Empire, Politics
Setting: Labyrinth
Genre: Literary Fiction
Listening
This year I created a playlist for my novel, and the soundtrack to The Naked Lunch was the first addition.
