Thomas Disch, Novelist, Dies at 68

"Post comment @ endzone" should be a considered action, not a recurring to-do list item. But I'm still working on wiring the hand to the brain, which brain is nearly adapted to the agony of not-writing, not to mention that of not-holding-a-book, and that makes for extra super tentative gestures at the outside world, especially in the directions of folks that one deeply admires.

Eh.

I guess I might as well keep those items right there on that list, and get to work crossing them off. There's nothing like an unannounced deadline having passed to kick one's writing right the hell back into gear.
