Media consumption Wednesday

[serene]

I don't feel like being all organized about the media consumption list, the way I usually am. I am listening to a lot of "Hamilton," reading some stuff here and there, including a fair bit of bad writing on Wattpad and some that's good.

My job is super-intense these days (though much less bad since the mass exodus), so I am left with little intellectual energy at the end of the day. I usually sit and play Two Dots while James and I watch whatever thing we're rewatching -- currently, it's the Suchet "Poirot."

I was just telling wild_irises that my reading goes in fits and starts. Lately, I'm not reading much, and then I'll go through a period when I'm finishing a book a day and reading everywhere and at all times. The plus side of not reading much is that I'm writing a fair bit, including a new novel that I'm putting out a chapter at a time on Wattpad. I don't expect it will be super-great, but it feels good to make something, so I'll see how it goes.

What's the best thing you've read lately?

In a Different Key by John Donvan & Caren Zucker, about people on the autism spectrum. I’m probably not one of them (more like ADD), but I can relate.

I'm listening to the audiobook of the Hamilton biography by Chernow that is the basis of the musical. I haven't listened to the whole cast album yet (doing it together with my son, watching the youtube versions that have lyrics on the screen, on our big tv).
