Echo and the Bunnymen
Hilltop Park
Bill met Tris in a new location this time. They always met in one of a handful of locations: the South Docks, the Warehouse District between building #40 and building #102, one of a couple of busy beer-and-ramen joints. But not this time. Bill had sent a coded message through...
Want a house? Forfeit your soul.
It all started because my 9-year-old daughter and my 6-almost-7-year-old son share the same smallest bedroom in the house. Therefore, my daughter spends a lot of time in the bathroom they share with their older brother and any guests (not that that has been an issue for the last year)...

East District
The central street of the east district was slick like a runny nose on a toddler.
"I'm not high," Tris heard someone think, as he glided down the sidewalk, through the crowds streaming out of the clubs. "You're not high. Dammit, focus," he heard the same voice think. It was the...

Echo and the Bunnymen
Why I like these pieces in particular, and what elements of them I most want to mimic in my own work.
Gibson for sure coined the word cyberspace. I think he coined "the matrix", which the movie trilogy stole without embarrassment. He coined a lot of words in his books.
Gibson wrote about futuristic, difficult to visualize worlds, both the physical and the virtual. He flipped between those two. But he did...

Another option for my obsession
The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.
One of my all-time favorite opening sentences, that of William Gibson's Neuromancer. Gibson is another one of those authors I deeply admire, but I've only ever read Neuromancer. I might have read Burning Chrome at some point.
Gibson coined...
Slow Flow
I just wrote a blog post that is just chunky quotes from two different articles. I stopped short of writing my thoughts about how they relate because they're not well-formed. "Not well-formed thoughts?!" I thought, "Let's go write on adagia.org!"
I watch a lot of different YouTube channels, mostly bicycle-related or...

Choosing a Narcissus
My first and naggingly consistent thought is Chuck Palahniuk. He's long been one of my favorite fiction authors. I have copied his style quite a bit in the past. I'm curious what would be different if I more intentionally copied him.

Opening ebook apps
I have 6701 articles in my Pocket read later list.
I have a reading list database in Notion. It has 302 unread books on it. 52 of those I have in my possession in one form or another. I have (10+) more in my possession that I havenβt entered into the...
Clubbin'
I'm currently a part of 4 learning adventure clubs:
I mentioned Learning Adventure Clubs while talking about the most recent one I've joined. But there are three more I'm currently a part of.
The most low-key one is reading Tiago Forte's Just-in-Time Project Management series:

The Echo and Narcissus Writing Club
Today I enrolled in the Echo and Narcissus Writing Club, which is being facilitated by my coworker, UX designer, art director, and anthropologist Maggie Appleton. I'm excited for a couple of reasons. First, it will motivate me to write more, and I will have this space to share that writing...
