This was another extremely busy week, so not many updates to report, unless ServiceNow debugging is interesting. Managed to read quite a bit in the spare moments in the mornings, and worked out a lot, so as I finish this post I am tired and sore.
Reading
Currently reading The Curious Case of Dassoukine’s Trousers, a collection of short stories by Moroccan writer Fouad Laroui.
Writing
A little creative work this week. A poem and some world-building for the story I wrote most of during NaNoWriMo 2022. So that idea, at least, still has legs.
Subject: Dragons, Mutants
Setting: Ocean
Genre: Adventure
