Writing

continued revisions this week for ‘the girl’. disassociation and derealism’s begun. in essence, i worked on the part where its just a line of uncomfortably sequenced short stories with only hints of delineation, so of course i love these parts

in addition:

  • messing with more heightened kossler fantasy voice. is it tending too bolaño or bernhard? perhaps. but that just leads to more joyful revision.
  • submitted somewhere. tbh i forget, cause im not back to keeping records yet. hope they adore me

Other projects

drafting out new devlogs for my ants, often away from home and on my phone, in lines for bathrooms

Books

of note:

  • started JG Ballard high rise, hell yes
  • back to Solenoid (taking in a section again as audiobook). by the time i finish ill likely have been reading for six months
  • read a couple tiny indie comix

Other media

  • Ethel Cain never made sense to me till Perverts. Now I will defend her to the death
  • i liked this talk
  • saw Dan Deacon perform at a ballet; it was so damn good that he wasn’t even the highlight
