26-30/52 three of the Brothers Sinister books and two of the Worth Saga, all by Courtney Milan. It hasn’t been a *productive* weekend, certainly, but it hasn’t ‘alf been a fun one.

25/52 a beautiful story, or a collection of stories, about what it means to be a family, what it means to be a community, with all the love and the hate and the longing and the resentment that’s inextricable from it and from you. Hell of a read.

Going for hospital tests on Wednesday. I need to find my ‘I need clear instructions’ badge because I am remarkably stupid when I’m overwhelmed and scared.

24/52 Mr Collins in Love: @leewelchwriter.bsky.social. Golly but that was a delight, and hurt my heart with the happy ending of it. I long for communication so easy and honest - or, not easy, but *brave*. A gorgeous read that salvaged Austen’s unsalvageable and made it something beautiful. #BookSky

Reading @leewelchwriter.bsky.social’s Mr Collins in Love and I see myself so much in his evident neurodivergence and I am fairly certain I won’t make it through this book without weeping. This is standard for Lee’s books, I won’t lie.

23/52 everyone recommends this one for a reason. Everyone should read this one, too.

An update! Excitingly, the podcast is now up! You can hear two of us talking about our chapter on #DigitalConfidence and how it relates to #DigitalTransformation at 46:55 on this podcast, and hear about loads of other fascinating chapters in this book besides!

Prolonged absence because I have been sick for a month and have to get tested in the hospital and what does that mean? That means Prolonged Comfort Fanfic Reading, folks. How to be an antiracist, Silk and Power are all languishing unread by my bedside while I languish upon it 😁👍

Sometimes I run out of life for a bit - the plans run out, as does the energy for making them, and everything winds down. It’d be good if I had a better strategy for restarting the clockwork than self-flagellation but hey, at least I’m awake again. 🌞

Taproot by @keezyyoung.bsky.social (22/52) utterly adorable story in a gorgeous art style, and the hinted-at universe is absolutely *fascinating*. Queerness and necromancy and inept romance, it’s like this was designed precisely for me 😍 I’ve ordered their other books, can’t wait to read them!

Ngl I think I’ve found my Halloween costume but I may need to bring a print out of a very specific 1936 political cartoon so it makes sense 🤣 (is this an excuse to buy myself a widow’s robe? IS IT EVER)

A kiss for midwinter by Courtney Milan (21/52) - this is the reason I started the series in the first place, because it’s referenced in her essay Pride and Predators (linked) about Wickham and the dangers of civility. Painfully deals with learning to hope. 💜
