My campaign to produce Shakespeare's Sonnets: A Graphic Novel Adaptation needs your help! Please sign up at https://www.patreon.com/fisherking for access to exclusive content and the opportunity to be a part of the magic!

I'm also producing a podcast discussing the sonnets, available on
industrial curiosity, itunes, spotify, stitcher, tunein and youtube!
For those who prefer reading to listening, the first 25 sonnets have been compiled into a book that is available now on Amazon and the Google Play store.

engaged

i spent yesterday indoors, jotting down notes from my readings and pushing out another page or so of my paper. some of the ideas, the challenges to and from what i've been researching, have taken me in directions that are way out of the scope of the paper i'm writing, so i've got to be really careful in choosing the immediate and urgent work i do now versus the stuff i'll junk out later, possibly in a non-academic format.

i keep going back to the poster in my tenth grade science class, one of a number of classes that year that i failed abysmally due to investing greater energies in developing my appreciation for electronic music and intensely affectionate strangers:
one's mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.
-- oliver wendell holmes
aside from an excursion to consume junk food and criticise other people's creative writing, and another to watch a documentary about the excess of unnecessary noise in israel's urban environments, i was relatively focused and studied long into the night.
