rhysianaWIP Wednesday
Fic: I started a Devil Judge 5+1 based on amusing thoughts annundriel and I had in DMs, but attempts to get over last week's cold has screwed up my sleep cycle, so writing motivation has been fleeting.
Knitting: I was *thisclose* to being done with the Lettuce Wrap shawl and then had to rip back two sections because the picot edge bind-off eats much more yarn than I was expecting.
Temari: Plugging away at really boring finishing bits now.
Wednesday Reading
Just finished: Portrait of a Thief, Grace D. Li. I really enjoyed this one, and am happy to report all the bits that take place at Duke were accurate (and I am probably the only reader of this book to go through the thought process of "She did a semester in Beijing? But Duke Study in China only does the summer program in Beijing, not semester... oh, right, she's already fluent, she would have been doing an external program.") I wasn't really expecting so much of the focus to actually be on all the characters figuring out where they fit in the world wrt the looming end of college and existing in Chinese diaspora (as opposed to the art heists), but that's not a complaint.
Currently reading:
-Fugitive Telemetry, Martha Wells
-Tai Sui, priest - still in the 4th arc, got distracted from rapid progress by checking things out from the library that have deadlines
-Daughter of the Moon Goddess, Sue Lynn Tan (audio) - no progress on this, as I wasn't really working on temari more than necessary
