reading some balzac again. he is my comfort writer. i cannot deny it.

bitsy game jam submission at wonderville
another game jam at wonderville. there quite fun, as a non-designer. as with last game jam submission, my work on this was mostly writing: a heavily worldbuilt absurd world, with more connections and resonances than you’d ever need. give it a look below:

MOVING WEEK. THIS WEEK I HAVE BEEN PACKING UP ALL MY THINGS. BOOKS WERE VERY QUICKLY INACCESSIBLE
Writing
listened to a real long text-to-speech mp3 of The Girl, a revision strategy. i think its basically done, but i gotta fix a lot of typos. also did some self-translation and got notification of acceptance to a mag. ill post info here when that’s public
Other projects
little bit of ants. did a game jam over the weekend, oughta post my work up here soon
Books
very little reading, compared to my baseline. most of my books are in boxes, most of my free time’s been spent putting things in boxes
Other
predominantly:
- podcasts, while moving. they require the perfect amount of focus, aka ‘slight’
- Case of, Rise of the Golden Idol, on breaks, to fall into wonderful puzzling trifles of delight
i also watched blues brothers for the first time ever; it is bad
