Most probably on my academic blog for my occasional musings:

• (long overdue) on ethnicity DNA tests (I have strong thoughts!)
• 19th century Scottish passport records
• the tentatively titled “Bookshops as alienating ableist spaces? Thoughts as a reader with progressive neurological illness reading difficulties.” - that one might prove quite provocative ...

It's a really good sign that I am thinking of writing these soon, a good sign that I'm recovering more and more. Though it may take me a while to get to them, I do now have a to-do list of blog posts to have fun writing. I hand draft blog posts with a fountain pen, then quickly type them up, very quick edit and post. I find writing by hand generates a freer sense of content than if I type. I usually surprise myself with what I come up with.

I am also hoping soon to get going on IFComp games. But at the moment, apart from some awake time at night, I am just asleep.
