Five of sev\u00aden days spent at work plus a two-hour inter\u00adview process at a work\u00adsite 45 min\u00adutes away meant lit\u00adtle time for much else this week, alas.<\/p>\n
Read\u00ading: <\/em>Much of my rou\u00adtine sched\u00adule was dis\u00adrupt\u00aded this past week, leav\u00ading lit\u00adtle time for read\u00ading, research and writ\u00ading. Then my lim\u00adit\u00aded read\u00ading time was dis\u00adtract\u00aded with a short sto\u00adry col\u00adlec\u00adtion that I dis\u00adcov\u00adered in the world of a favorite author of mine, but which may have sparked an idea for a short sto\u00adry in that same world.<\/p>\n Research:<\/em> I am fol\u00adlow\u00ading the cur\u00adrent sto\u00adry\u00adline in the Bleach<\/em> ani\u00adme series, fol\u00adlow\u00ading from the man\u00adga sto\u00adry\u00adline, which has an inter\u00adest\u00ading take on mind con\u00adtrol. The antag\u00ado\u00adnist appar\u00adent\u00adly has the pow\u00ader to edit mem\u00ado\u00adries of peo\u00adple and has insert\u00aded him\u00adself into the lives of all the fam\u00adi\u00adly and friends of the lead pro\u00adtag\u00ado\u00adnist. I\u2019m still not sure why the lead nor anoth\u00ader pro\u00adtag\u00ado\u00adnist have been left alone, except maybe to have fight scenes.There is also a cou\u00adple of oth\u00ader pro\u00adtag\u00ado\u00adnists who are also exclud\u00aded from the effect but whose motives and actions are unclear. I\u2019ll write up the details when the sto\u00adry\u00adline is concluded.<\/p>\n
