Blogging Break

I have been on a bit of a blogging break which is likely to go on for a few more weeks. The break has been the result of a confluence of several factors, starting with a lot of work. Historically, I would have reacted by cutting back on sleep and workouts but now I know better than to do that. I need 8 hours of sleep and when I don’t get those I can’t think well and, more importantly for the people around me, become irritable. Since I am on the topic of health, I am happy to report that my shoulder is fully restored. That’s due to having found an amazing physical therapist and a wonderful personal trainer (I feel incredibly fortunate that I can afford this level of personal attention).

I have also been on a bit of a reading bender. Some time ago I realized that I had read virtually no science fiction by women authors and so I set out to rectify this. Since then I have read great works by Ada Palmer (Terra Ignota Series), Nnedi Okorafur (Binti Series), Annalee Newitz (Autonomous), Ursula K. Le Guin (The Left Hand of Darkness) and NK Jemisin (Broken Earth Trilogy – currently halfway through first book). I highly recommend all of these.

I plan to return to blogging in a few weeks. During that time I will also look into how I can finally get off Tumblr for good. If you have any recommendations please let me know. Until then have a great break everyone!
