I spent twenty years living inside Chinese culture. Not visiting. Not observing. Living inside it. I learned the language, built a life, and somewhere along the way, a dog became the thread that held it all together. The Four Seasons of Rascal is the memoir no expat has written — from the inside, through a dog. Publishing June 15 on Amazon. For readers of River Town, Hachiko, and The Art of Racing in the Rain. 📖 www.RascalTheBook.com #dogmemoir #chinamemoir #expatlife #harbin #memoirwriting #dogsofinstagram #chineseculture #booklover #comingsoon #memoir #books

When I was a child I was forced to confront my boredom. I found a pencil stub and a scrap of paper. Much to my surprise I found myself drawing something from nothing. The restriction gave me the gift. What were you told you couldn't do — and what did that refusal accidentally give you? New discussion post on Secrets, Lies, and the Family Ghost. https://emilystmarie.substack.com/p/what-were-you-told-you-couldnt-do #memoir #writing #creativity #Substack #amwriting

Sidewize features in chapter 10 of my serialized memoir. You can read it here: https://stevewetherill.substack.com/p/chapter-10-the-future-that-never-was Note for nerds: The video here is captured at 25 fps, and since the game itself runs at 50 fps, the flicker visible here is due to quantization of the multiplexed weapon rendering (player weapons/enemy weapons were rendered on alternate frames). Also, in the video, depending on which frames were dropped by the 25 fps capture, some weapons will be dropped altogether. It looks great on a real CRT with real phosphor decay characteristics! #RetroGaming #GameDev #Memoir #ZXSpectrum

#3GoodThings

  1. Reading Didion's Slouching Towards Bethlehem.

  2. In #SF for #Stanford Health Library event -- a discussion of my #memoir, #caregiving, #dementia -- that has 100 registrants.

  3. Kid & partner (the inspiration behind my #bloomscrolling) started new business. Here's a link to the 1st post @plantsculptures (I left #instagram & returned only to follow them; hope this link works!) & boost their posts. Their plant sculptures are, if I may, magnificent.

#3GoodThings

  1. My students wrote the most extraordinary final papers I have read in my almost 40 years of teaching at the college level (and no #AI)!

  2. Saw this street sign -- Dr. Maya Angelou -- in #SF. Love it all. Including Dr. (50 honorary doctorate degrees).

  3. I'm back in #LA tending to my garden and getting ready to write the next essay in my work-in-progress #gardening #memoir.
