Winter seems to have little interest in Perth at the moment. There’s the occasional shower, some cold mornings, but basically beautiful cool, sunny days. Against that backdrop, I called Gary in Chicago this morning and we discussed:
- science fiction in translation,
- the place of bestselling fantasy in the field (a little),
- awards, and
- a new book you don’t need to read (though we did go round about it a little).
It’s another longish podcast. We hope you enjoy it as always and will see you next weekend!
So I have the office iPad at home for the weekend again, and I find myself still in the like-not-love stage with it. The keyboard is ok, but I find myself not really wanting to type too much with it, and every now and then I come across something in flash, which it won’t play with, which is a nuisance. Still, it is pretty. If I owned the iPad I’d persist, but having the luxury to occasionally pla means I do just that. I may fall in love, but not yet.
In other news, had a nice day yesterday. Got out and socialised a bit, which I needed. Saw Alisa for lunch, then the dinner gang evening. Today is podcasting, column edits, and proposal sort of stuff. I’m behind, but still swinging.
…unavoidable stuff from jonathan strahan…
