Books

 Books, Books, Books. Can't get enough of 'em. Thoughts frequently come to me while reading, I don't think they're really special or unique, but it's a fun way to start a dialogue with others.

Here is a link to my Goodreads, in case anyone wants to befriend and nudge me in a particular literary direction.

Until I can figure out a more appropriate way to share reactions to books, this page shall have to do for now. Please check out my Goodreads, comment here on what you notice or think. I think what I will have to end up doing is making a Post for each book, and then linking it back to this page so it is easily accessible. Blogger does have Labels, so I could use those, but I want this to be a compendium of sorts, and who doesn't love organizing eh?

A Little Pain, A Little Panic

 Stress If there were a way to place a microphone in my little noggin, snuggled up next to this infernally overactive brain, between the wrinkles, just adjacent to my temporal lobe, and this microphone could somehow translate the firing of synapses into language, "Terrible" is the word that would serve as notice of a barrage of the loosely cogent, barely related litany of internal arguments on the way. Like this moment of panic when Beaker demonstrates non-flammable paper,   I, too, react similarly, in times of duress. However here, it is less of a spontaneous reaction to a perfectly reasonable stimulus, and more like  this scene from "His Girl Friday" .  While searching for a clip to properly encapsulate the chaos I feel roams so freely in my mind, I also realized there is a distinct lack of modern (or postmodern, I suppose) scenes of banter that I am aware of. I refuse to acknowledge anything that happens in the MCU as banter, or reminiscent of witty, with the exp...

Autumn and Aran

  Happy Fall Readers! I'm using the "Homemade Apple" font in making this post today, I personally love writing in cursive, although mine isn't quite as neat, I think it is apropos to celebrate the recent change in weather! Quite nice, quite nice indeed. Finally, I have had a reason to wear my "fisherman's" cardigan. A long while ago, or perhaps not too long ago, or perhaps even still today, there was a time where fisherman's wives would make them elaborately stitched jackets, vests, sweaters, maybe even socks. There is a bit of a story here, and I feel bold enough to tell it, admittedly only in half-truths.   Fishermen, for those unlearned in the ways of the oceanic occupation, are usually gone for elongated periods of time, doing grueling and sometimes dangerous work. Not every swarthy sailor who sets out to sea succeeds in returning to shore. Well, I guess that although there was a dearth of sailors returning home alive, there gave cause to conside...

Rolling Right Along

 Plans for this blog. What are they? Be Awesome Write gud Commission (my first ever) profile picture I think I am going to go for an image in which one person, who is doing the typical Scrivener/Scribe pose where they are just sitting at a table with a manuscript, is interacting with the piece or person they are recording. I've seen some antique art where it looks like what I think is an actual scrivener as opposed to a scribe , someone interviewing another person with a funny seated position, and transcribing what they're saying What aspect of The Scrivener do I want to perpetuate through this blog? I feel as though the role is generally a selfless one, in which the information which is recorded is not necessarily  pertinent, but perhaps more apposite. Something that is more about the circumstances than the individual. I think this is appropriate for the theme of this blog. It is less important for me to think of myself as selfless than it is to look for ways in which I can d...
