I've never been more concentrated. I want to think about butterflies.

I love bats. I love thinking about bats & talking about bats. I love the urgent, intricate subject of zoonotic diseases. But jeezus. Anyway, we'll get through. How you?

I love bats, too! Notwithstanding your heroic efforts in Spillover to get me to rethink that position. I am having one hell of a hard time trying to write, is how I am. But counting my blessings, daily, and wishing there were more efficient mechanisms for sharing them.

When Somerset Maugham wanted to get something done, but couldn't quite think what, he used to copy out, word for word, in longhand, exceptionally well-written passages from books he admired. Yes, it's essentially mindless work; but he found it instructive. Maybe worth a try?
