Oh, box

Oh, box!  I have still not earned the pleasure of opening you.  I can’t even remember what I ordered it has been so long.

Meanwhile, I am reading Greta and Valdin : it’s set in New Zealand, which is cool.  It has character names that I am finding confusing though.  Maybe that’s because I only read a few pages at bedtime each night?  Maybe the author Rebecca Reilly did what I sometimes do in my own fiction writing, which is commit too hard to a bit that should be funny and good because of its complexity, but actually takes a lot for a reader to get in to and so winds up being less funny and less good as a result?

I’m also still working on Enders’s Gut. Today’s newsflash? The gut makes 95% of our serotonin!!
