🔖📝 Read “I Hate the Idea of Healing” A Conversation with Maggie Smith
One thing that mothering has taught me is that I can’t be precious about where I work. When I work, I cannot demand uninterrupted space and time…If I got completely derailed every time somebody needed me, I’d never do anything.
Finished reading: Guards! Guards! by Terry Pratchett 📚
My first finished Discworld. Reading Piers Anthony feels like coming home (miss me with your takes on him, please, I know his flaws). Reading Terry Pratchett feels like visiting a treasured friend. A lot of fun here.

Data: *has a personal problem* *does extensive research* Captain Picard, I have done all the research but I do not have the answer to my problem.
Picard: What do you think about the problem, though?
Data: *blinks*
Just another reason I identify with Data.
Full-on happy misty-eyed over this week’s Picard. 🖖🏻📺

Revision is unromantic, time-consuming, tiring. It is also the only way to make one’s writing better.

📓 Read Subjectivity and Reflexivity: An Introduction by Franz Breuer, Katja Mruck & Wolff-Michael Roth (Forum: Qualitative Social Research).
A quick introduction to a pair of special issues. Interested to see how the conversation’s advanced.
