fuck it all

Maybe this is a sign that my pills need to be changed, but this blog has become a source of anxiety rather than a source of meaning for me, so fuck it. Until I can come up for a way for this to be meaningful and not just one more thing I fail at, it’s gone.

Sorry Zhu Li. I can’t do the thing.

mission imperative

I think it’s time for a change in this blog’s mission imperative. (Barely two months in — I know, I know.) This started out as a blog about writing interactive fiction, learning JavaScript, and how to make things accessible. I dumped the learning JavaScript for the time being, haven’t even really touched accessibility issues, and keep hitting blocks in my fiction writing. In short: I suck.

But why give up when you can change course?

It’s not going to be a complete course change — I still plan on working on interactive fiction, and I still want to understand how to make what I write accessible — but I’m going to start adding other things, like book reviews. I’ve been reading a lot more books recently.

So coming up later this weekend (maybe today, though I’m home for an early Mother’s Day) — a review of Lost Voices by Sarah Porter.

Im doing the thing (again)
