I had thought to wait until the last Temeraire book came out before I posted, but it’s just taking too long and I’m too psychy to not recognise a procrastination excuse when I hear one.
Voting has closed on the Labyrinth writing contest for June. The runaway entry that stole my heart was TRasa’s The Test where the robot Sam clearly passes the Turing Test from the first line. His take on the choice of prompt ‘Romance and Robots’ was the geekest romance I have ever read.
Other than participating in the contest, the writing side of things have died back a little bit. That will change soon because I’m hell bent on winding back some of my work so I can have time to write. I sigh longingly when I looked back to Easter last year where I wrote Librarian in 4 days. Getting back to that may mean a few financial sacrificed though. I’ve got my grocery spending waaay down and I hope by just using two lamps with energy-saving bulbs at night I will shave some off my electricity bill. Being an adult is 80% fun and 20% stopping yourself from buying a jumping castle with a ball pit as a moat.
Maintaining my psychologistdom is not cheap either, I tell you! The registration, memberships, and training all adds up! But it’s tax time! *rub hands together*. Let’s see if it adds up enough to put me in a lower tax bracket. Another procrastination excuse I have been using is that I can’t do my tax until my work places send me the group certificate.
