I return from the dead!
Hopefully this'll be last of the long (really long) hiatuses. The reasons for my extended absence are manifold, but in short, I've suffered a serious lack of inspiration and initiative. Since the last post my plan had been to again set up an RSS feed, but I discovered that there's no set standard for it, and so I simply gave that up, not wanting to choose between several competing standards and conventions and whatnot. Besides, my web site isn't a newsletter, right?
So in the preceeding year I've actually managed to read some books. I'll simply list them:
- The Woman Warrior
- The Grand Design
- What We Believe But Cannot Prove
- Quirkology
- Revolt on Alpha C
- To Open the Sky
- The Dawkins Delusion?
- Rocks of Ages
- Lying
- Why Evolution is True
- The Fifth Essence
- Discoveries
- Cosmic View
- Time Gate
- H. P. Lovecraft Omnibus Vol. 2
This is an abominable rate, I know. I am also painfully aware of the fact that my reviews are short and not that informative. The problem is that I don't immediately review the books I read right after I've read them, when they're fresh in my mind. But then again, if there wasn't room for improvement, where would the fun be?
I've got some stuff in the works, though. Doing nothing is boring, and I'm bored of being bored.
