cahnJanuary-February-ish meme, sort of! I have some posts I've been thinking about making but have not actually made; if any of these (or anything else) is of interest to you, let me know and I'll post on them in the order they get commented on using a vague algorithm known only to my brain but involving number of votes and how long I think it'll take to write it. My hopeful plan is to do two a week. Synopses in brackets, when applicable.
-Seeing Wicked live for the first time [much preferable to watching a non-live copy; also, a very good Elphaba]
-The Library at Mount Char [interesting and flawed]
-Go Set a Watchman [I loved this; but doesn't stick the landing]
-Hugo-eligible short fiction I've liked (part 2)
-Ron Chernow's biography of Alexander Hamilton (…if I ever finish it, which may be more difficult now that I have misplaced my Kindle) [LOVE; also the musical makes a lot more sense after reading]
-Hamilton and the Divine Comedy [two things I really love for, interestingly enough, much the same reasons]
-Melody, modulation, harmony, and Hamilton [LMM doesn't really do melody in the way I understand it; I am convinced he thinks primarily in harmony]
-Heinlein's observations about humor as applied to a slightly-ASD 5-year-old [Heinlein should have tested his ideas first]
-Jury duty [Conflicted feelings about the case and also lots of feelings about trial lawyers]
-eShakti [DRESSES AND SKIRTS WITH POCKETS]
-The new bishop (Mormon-speak for minister/pastor) at church [I never knew a new bishop could make so much difference in a ward]
-Something else you will elaborate on in comments
First week January: Yuletide media posts, New bishop
Second week January: Jury duty, Hugo short fiction
Third week January: eShakti, Chernow
Fourth week January: Library at Mount Char, Heinlein
First week February: Hamilton, Wicked
Second week February: Hamilton
