My cat was referred to a veterinary neurologist once. They gave her an exam and then epilepsy meds and she did great after that. For some neuro stuff, you want them seen/medicated early because some seizures can promote more seizures. The neuro was only as costly as the normal vet.

Simple. You just need to know the wind direction on the day you were born and whether your grandparents liked horses, and then

You could also do it on a typewriter and scan/ocr the pages. A good ocr for cleanly typewritten pages must exist…

For me, I don’t necessarily like the tiny screen of freewrite & co. Especially if the goal is not first-drafting, but revising and converting to digital.

Hmm I wonder if any of the last generation of electric typewriters can export a file (or be modded easily to do so)

You can! I personally don’t find polished slides especially
memorable. I’d rather a memorable ugly slide any day.

an image with a series of nested net bowls in oceanic blues and greens with a text superimposed on them. The text reads: "Stitching Stories; or, Imagining the Biography of Those who did not write."

finishing off my slides for this weekend's Creative Writing and Storytelling Conference at University of King's College. Archives. Erasures. Empire. Politics. Resistance. Stitchery = these are a few of my favourite things.

HENCH is a phenomenal book, and I am very excited to be getting more from these characters and this world.

It's funny, it's grounded, and it gives time and attention to the collateral damage of heroes.

Cecil is not kidding. Once she asked me what my favourite version of Superman was and I said I didn’t have one, and she was downright angry with me for at least a minute. Cecil should be writing Superman. And then my fav will be Cecil’s Superman. Happy Superman Day.
