I’ve had my fill of family, now I’m going to select portraits of different famous people I like and see if I can paint them

      ‘fraid so… Production delays/writers’ strike must have killed ratings since there was over 2 years between seasons 1 and 2. Lots happens in S2, so it’s still worth watching what we did get.

      Just looked up the book and reviews are good but it sounds significantly different than the show.

          At least I was able to bring you some consolation along with the bad news!

                  I just recently finished a book on the Soviet space dogs. That was pretty easy to knock out, as it was about half pictures.

                  I need to restart What an Owl Knows, as I started it a year or so ago and got overwhelmed by the amount of stuff in it and stopped to research some of the new things I learned.

                  Also got myself Guards! Guards! to check out Discworld.

                  Otherwise a bunch of classic sci-fi and King/Koontz horror stuff.

                  I’ve started music lessons around 18 months ago as well, so that’s taken a big slice of that reading time in addition to my recent brain struggles.

                  Around the same time I also started reading manga, as the typically shorter chapters make it easier to read in small bits. Been able to knock out a bunch of that.
