  3. Echoing in my head today: "You are a blessing"/"I am what is required" from the excellent novella The Deep by Rivers Solomon (with Daveed Diggs, William Hutson and Jonathan Snipes). So much of that book makes me reflect on motherhood and that line in particular.

    FULL SPEECH: Sen. Romney says he will vote in favor of the article of impeachment on abuse of power against President Trump. "With my vote, I will tell my children and their children that I did my duty to the best of my ability, believing that my country expected it of me."

  5. Drove to Montreal and back today. It never ceases to astound me how utterly exhausting it is to just sit and mostly stare straight ahead for several hours.

    One weird aspect of aging is witnessing nostalgia for things you're too old to remember.

    Well, this story is infuriating on about six different levels.

    The last 40 remaining copies of Armed in Her Fashion have arrived at my house, and I'm selling them (signed, natch) via my website, or get in touch if you'd like one. I'll bring them to events and stuff too, while supplies last.

    Do I remember rightly that you worked on a Canterbury Tales game? Saw this news item and thought of the brave new digital Chaucerian world:

    Orleans, in a bar at 40: And then this one time, when I was sixteen, I chased a stag through the streets of Paris. Random drunk: Bull-MERDE. No you didn't. Orleans: I did. Drunk: NON. Orleans: Drunk: Orleans: Le Fou, get my horse.

    Just found a mention in Tallyrand's memoirs for 1787, hooray. Used the word "deer" which interfered with my searching, and says it was "in the ditches of the Faubourg Saint Antoine" but I'm calling that close enough.

    My approach to writing secret or alternate history is to know what the facts ARE as much as I can, so that when I change them, it's in ways related to the overall obvious change I've made, so it's fairly transparent. So I get into rabbit holes.

    Today in novel research: I have one history book in front of me that says that the Duc D'Orléans chased a stag into what is now the Place de la Concorde in Paris in 1787. I have another history book in front of me that says that same event happened in the mid 1760s. I am vexed.

    I've been struggling to articulate my feelings on that article since last night, but this right here is it. And considering the incredibly wide reach of commercial fiction, I think it's just as important, if not more, to examine the content of popular works.

    Postscript: I have decided after far, far too much reflection that I choose to believe William saying "there's too much confusion" in the final pages is, in fact, a Dylan reference.

    I enjoyed it just as much as I have on previous readings. Still love the sentence work. Will probably read it again in a few years.

    The End. One reason I wanted to reread The Name of the Rose was to consider it in context of Eco's writing on fascism and I think the core of that is William's exhortation to "make the truth laugh" -- maybe, to respect truth by resisting the lure of certitude.

    William talking about charta lintea (linen paper): "Many are afraid linen paper will not surivive through the centuries like parchment, and perhaps that is true." But a lot of medieval paper books survive. Here's one in Greek from 1252. Source:
