Catching up...
Jul. 14th, 2020 08:14 pmSort of. What have I been up to? Working on Blood Moon (almost done with this draft!) and new chapters of the novel in progress that I'm serializing for my Patreon (the money goes to Queen of Swords Press to keep it solvent). Speaking of Queen of Swords, our titles are on sale on Smashwords for the annual Summer/Winter Sale and I've added a ton of new events. I taught a workshop for Broad Universe last weekend and have Columbia Heights Pride online this Saturday (7/18). I'll be on programming and running a vendor table at CONZealand, and for funzies, I also got a vendor table at virtual Outwrite in D.C. the same weekend. I updated my pinned post for all the upcoming stuff - lots of virtual events and classes, mostly.
Apart from all that, I'm hitting at least one local online benefit a week and have started taking an online isolation and conditioning class with with Cassandra Shore, director of the Jawaahir Dance Company (Middle Eastern dancing troupe and school that has its studio space in the building next to what used to be the 3rd Precinct building). I'm...really out of shape. Ouch. I've already signed up for several more.
I got a Netflix account just to watch "The Old Guard." I absolutely loved it and plan to watch it again. I also got a Disney Plus account to watch "Hamilton," and love that too. Less excited about D+ and will be letting it go. I fought getting any streaming for quite a while - we used to have a local video rental store, I have very little free time and I generally check DVDs out from Quatrefoil and the public library, only not so much right now. So streaming it is, at least for a bit.
Now to go vote for Hugos and do some odds and ends before bed.
