Alvaro Zinos-Amaro: Double Jujitsu

We live in a fantasy world, a world of illusion. The great task in life is to find reality. - Iris Murdoch // The interplay of thought and imagination is far superior to that of muscle and sinew. - Isaac Asimov // The soul should always stand ajar, ready to welcome the ecstatic experience. - Emily Dickinson // A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving. - Lao Tzu // Do whatever you will, but first be such as are able to will. - Friedrich Nietzsche // The root of all superstition is that men observe when a thing hits, but not when it misses. - Francis Bacon // Face the facts of being what you are, for that is what changes what you are. - Soren Kierkegaard // The possible ranks higher than the actual. - Martin Heidegger //

Double Jujitsu

After surviving the trip to SLC last week I learned at work today that I'll be traveling to Bellevue as well. So, SFMHF, watch out.

Finished new hard sf story last week and completed numerous drafts over the weekend. Another one in the hands of the Slush Gods now.

Started a new story today and wrote the first 1,300 words; about a quarter of it, based on my outline/notes.

In an unprecedented double chocolate jujitsu, I enjoyed some chocolate molten cake AND some chocolate mousse as well. All in all, not a shoddy day.

Oh, and the strawberries were good too.
