Entry 27 is out. On quality, what Pirsig meant by it, why Phaedrus breaks trying to define it, and what it might mean for architecture. https://asupala.me/2026/06/14/entry-27-on-quality/ #quality #architecture #pirsig #zenandtheartofmotorcyclemaintenance #book #writing #blog

In about three weeks, I'll launch my new novella, about an old woman with social anxiety who finds herself organising the defence of a decentralised nation when colonisers invade to steal the tech that makes her village a #solarpunk utopia. It is available for pre-order in all major stores (I think), but you can also get it from my small press, and there is a sample chapter available. https://www.ododopress.com/novellas/the-blossoming-of-the-big-tree/ #books #bookstodon #book #SolarPunkSunday #scifi

“We don’t sit in meditation to become good meditators. We sit in meditation so that we’ll be more awake in our lives.” - Pema Chödrön From her #book “when things fall apart” https://d3e.co/y8 I opened the book to a random page and came across these words. They’re resonating with me deeply in this moment, so I share them with you now. ☺️ “Meditation is an invitation to notice when we reach our limit and to not get carried away by hope and fear. Through meditation, we’re able to see clearly what’s going on with our thoughts and emotions, and we can also let them go.” “Reaching our limit is not some kind of punishment. It’s actually a sign of health that, when we meet the place where we are about to die, we feel fear and trembling. A further sign of health is that we don’t become undone by fear and trembling, but we take it as a message that it’s time to stop struggling and look directly at what’s threatening us. Things like disappointment and anxiety are messengers telling us that we’re about to go into unknown territory.” “Reaching our limit is like finding a doorway to sanity and the unconditional goodness of humanity, rather than meeting an obstacle or punishment.” Thanks for sharing this moment with me 🙏🏼 #Meditation #mindfulness #calm #SelfCare

My #bookreview is brief/won't spoil, to spread good, great, and spectacular #horror #books far and wide. Illuminating, concise, and chock-full of fascinating details— with images of pages and ephemera pulled from King's personal archives— this book provides a truly unique and one-of-a-kind window into the Writing World and Words of Stephen King. An absolute joy for any Constant Reader. (Hogarth) #book #review #bookstodon #StephenKing @bookstodon@fedigroups.social #mothersuspiriareview #MSReview @bookstodon@toot.community

Finished Two Can Play by Ali Hazelwood. It's a fun, cute romance romp based around videogame designers. I had a lot of fun with this one, and as it is a novella it was a very quick read. I enjoyed the romance between the two, I enjoyed the videogame references. I did find some of the descriptions to be a bit... medical. Like there was a part where the FMC touches the MMC's "sternum" - just say touch his chest. #book #books #booksky #bookstodon #reading #readingcommunity

Finished Mort by Terry Pratchett today. I enjoyed the book, thought it was good! It really needed more Death - he was such a stand out character! The book is full of funny and intelligent quips! I found the pacing of the plot to be a bit all over the place, though. #books #booksky #book #bookstodon #reading #readingcommunity

I realize people hate AI, but I do use a site called GoArt.fotor to make my heroine on the Flicka's LOVERS book cover do stuff. I couldn't resist posting this one for the promo that the book is in. Even Flicka can't believe how hot this Book Funnel Promotion is--the Dirty Little Secrets promo running throughout May, which Flicka's LOVERS is featured in.

Finished Happy Place by Emily Henry. I loved it - a really good romance book that explores relationships between lovers, friends, and family. I wasn't expecting it to go quite as deep as it did, but I enjoyed it. #book #books #booksky #bookstodon #bookLovers #reading #readingcommunity

The slow burn of an attraction takes a heavy toll on two showrunners for a popular reality series in the novel "The Fifth Seduction." Julia and Mable embark on an unstoppable love that was five years in the making in the fifth season of their hit show. Location filming takes them around the globe, making their secret affair that began with one torrid weekend in Malibu, possible. But both women have other relationships, and those people eventually find out. Break-ups are hard and messy, but Julia and Mable decide to end their romance, once and for all, on the island of Majorca. But Lani, Julia's girlfriend, shows up in Spain and ruins that plan. Julia's unresolved feelings for Mable end up hurting all four people affected by the affair, and Julia and Mable's professional partnership can't survive. After much chaos, the two women finally meet at the beach house in Malibu, where it all began, to say goodbye. A tiny last mention of the affair in The Fifth Seduction. The book turns one in April. #excerpts #romance #fiction #fictionalCharacter #film #television #books #bookstodon #book #novel #novels #scribesAndMakers #writing #writers #writer #writersCoffeeClub #women #reality #heart #show #shows #chaos #feeling #author #authors #indie #indieAuthor #indieAuthors #loveStory #storytelling #story #writersOfMastodon #mastodon

FINALLY! I have finished the Heat 2 book by Michael Mann and Meg Gardiner. The book reads like a script for a film turned into a book - it lacks depth and there is a lot of repetitive language. It was nice to see Neil and Vincent Hanna again. The Chris chapters were a slog though. The audiobook is ace - the guy has a grizzly/gravelly voice. Loved the audiobook. #book #books #booksky #bookstodon #reading #readingcommunity #readers
