From Dec 4-Dec 24 I'll do a daily #Christmas post.
Day Two? I made this angel and christmas tree out of construction paper, glue, & a blue pen in the Second Grade. They've been ornaments on my Christmas trees ever since. The brown spot on the angel is a burn mark from an old-style tree light bulb.

This week's episode of my #audiodrama is based on the final chapter and outro of my novel Beginning. Next week there will be historical notes and acknowledgments, but in terms of the narrative of the story, this concludes Season One of The Tape Recorder Trilogy #Podcast.

Post something random or you'll have an awful December.
(I'm mostly doing this because @williamhperkins.bsky.social's post was related to Commander Keen, a side-scrolling computer game I dearly loved as a kid.)

Our dog Cora is getting ready for Halloween trick-or-treaters. (Just kidding. She hates people knocking on the door. Or our neighbours' doors for that matter. Still, she looks cute in a costume...)

I came across this earlier today, and I have been chewing on it ever since. I agree with its sentiments completely, and it is such an apt and incredible analogy, I'm amazed I haven't heard it before in some other capacity. Anyway, I thought if it has impressed me this much, I better share it. Enjoy!

I tried a new kind of instant noodles and thought, "Hey, this is pretty good. I'll take a picture of the package so I remember it the next time I go to that Asian grocery store..."
My dog was very confused why I was not taking a picture of her, and decided to investigate. Enjoy the result.
