mellotron_breakfastThis was a slightly more writing-oriented day, though I needed time to go for my annual physical and (concurrent with that) get a flu shot. Things briefly got strange after that, so I took all the time I needed to get back into a writing mindset.
As for the reading queue, the last three works that I see were real pants-kickers; really intense and often depressing. Things just went that way after the Lewis Carroll works were done. Angela Carter, Ray Bradbury, even J.G. Ballard was not so much dark as really strange. The Zelazny tome I just opened ("Amber" collection, ten books in one) looks like the closest thing to light reading that I have left in the list. Due to the length, I may take a break to read something else after every Amber book, or perhaps after every two if I'm enjoying them enough.
Added to that queue, and probably the last in it, is a Toronto NaNoWriMo auction item. It is a collection of stories titled When the Hero Comes Home.
