Started reading S. King's IT, made it to page 16; it turns out it's not actually about clowning around with computer science.
Moved on to 12th Night, or What You Will, and got so annoyed with the trendy poser Malvolio I dropped it. Maybe I'll go back and finish at some point; I hope Olivia goes medieval on the jackass.
Picked up Rick Mercer's
Talking To Canadians
and finished it in a day. Fun read.

Hi! 👋 This is my new account post-social media detox (sometimes you need to Marie Kondo your digital life).

About me: I write under a pen name in CA. Currently crafting a noir mystery with a comedic bite—originally sci-fi (genre rebellion is real, folks).
Interests: #arts#books#music#nature#photography + more
Follow-backs for humans. Bots: Go bother a captcha.
