@Silversnapples That’s on my “I must read this at some point tin the future but I have a huge to-read pile at the moment and can’t add anything more. No, don’t buy it!” list.

@arratoon not to twist your arm but it's quite petit. A novella if you will.

I now have 4 books on the go at the same time and I'm not sorry 😂

@arratoon I realise I should have said which books I'm trying to read aside from Orbital.

Wyrd Sisters (Terry Pratchett)

Undoing Gender (Judith Butler)

The Writers Journey (Christopher Vogler)

We won't talk about the fifth unmentionable which is War and Peace. I've barely chipped a third and it feels like an age of my life.

@Silversnapples Are you reading the Vogler because you write?

@arratoon I am trying to get myself back to where I can convince myself I can. Spent 3 years learning the rules I have yet to break.

@arratoon there is absolutely nothing interesting at this end other than the literature I'm reading. Maybe one day 🤞 when the muses decide I'm worthy and bless me with divine inspiration. Much envy of the career. Life and timing got in the way of that for me. I'll keep my eye out for your future reading recommendations.
