Wincing at Light

The astute among you might have noticed that I didn’t get Chapter 5 of Agnosis posted until Tuesday morning, thus missing my Monday Guarantee(tm). It was a holiday. What can I say?

The even more astute among you may have noticed that I’ve slowed down tremendously on my blog posting as of late. This doesn’t reflect a waning interest in Wincing at Light at an entity, but rather an eruption of real life into the digital sphere. For the one or two of you who might not be aware, I’m a programmer for the Office of the Registrar at Indiana University. One of the primary tasks with which I’m charged is getting grades out to the students in a timely fashion. That usually means a really hectic bit toward the end of December, and then again toward the middling/end of January (depending on the academic calendar). What all of that means is that I’ve spent way too much of my mental space contemplating work tasks rather than things which might otherwise toot my tooter (by which, I do most specifically not mean wasting dozens of hours revisiting the underappreciated, unbridled joy of Jagged Alliance 2. I’m seriously too old for video games. Uh-huh.). Hopefully, my mental schedule is now (mostly) clear until the middle of May — at least when I’m not at work.

So, there you have it.

I do have some things I want to talk about later today, mostly regarding insights into Agnosis 4 & 5, which I hope you find at least a little interesting from the writer-on-writing perspective. We’ll see if I actually get around to it.
