A Grab-Bag of Thoughts

Good morning, Readers!

I still do not have news. I have been writing again, which is nice. I’m nearly at 80 000 words as of the writing of this post, and I’m really happy to be getting the story out of my head, even if I think it’s nonsense currently.

I’m also still struggling with the story and whether or not I ought to be publishing it. I’m anxious to get it into the hands of sensitivity readers so they can tell me either way. I don’t know what to do with it, and while there isn’t much I can do with it until it’s written, edited and passed to sensitivity readers, it’s still a low-level anxiety that’s always present in the back of my mind.

In gaming news, I will be live-streaming Friday night as usual, unless something happens. It may be a full ASMR episode, as my flat mate is likely to be in bed and I don’t want to disturb her. I haven’t decided if that will be the case yet, but I’m mulling it over.

As a treat to myself, I bought myself a copy of The Ghost of Tsushima for my PS4 — a reward for making it through Covid. It’s a silly reason to treat myself, but I so rarely buy myself anything other than food and shelter, and it was as good an excuse as any. The game looks awesome and I’m keen to get stuck into this story.

But that will be happening after the next game after my current play-through. I’m currently playing Assassin’s Creed Odyssey and will be playing Fenix Rising after that. Then I’ll play Ghost of Tsushima. I fully expect not to get to it for a good long while yet. Following that, I’ll get stuck into Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. I am one of those who is growing a collection of games I haven’t played and it’s not good. I need to get through this list before my next birthday... largely because my brother is the best brother and he usuallly buys me games for my birthday, and I’d like to get on it before the next birthday rolls around, damn it (that’s what happened to AC Odyssey and AC Valhalla...).

Also, while I was in bed sick, I saw the trailer for a new Mortal Kombat movie, and I 👏 am 👏 here 👏 for 👏 it. Does it not look ridiculous and corny as hell? Yes. Will it likely be a bad movie. Yes. Does it look like I will enjoy it all the same? Also yes.

Look, I like bad movies for some inexplicable reason. They make me happy.

Right, that’s all I’ve got. I’m going to go do more work.

​Ciao!
