Hi everyone. Scrambling at the last minute to make a video here. I’ve been working on color correction on my first film again, and also working on a novel that I’m finishing, a novel about a nuclear submarine that gets hijacked. It takes place off the coast of, I believe it was the Isle of Sky. One of those isles out there. Yes. Anyway, I’ve been in the midst of doing other things.
I did want to say that I have finished Rules of Thumb. It’s going to be out, I think, in December if I’m thinking correctly there. But this is a fun little book. It has all sorts of little sayings that you’ve probably heard before, like the Pareto Principle: Sometimes Less is More. It explains the principle. And fun stuff like Plotz’s Law: Ask Yourself This Question Before You Say Yes.
Yeah, that’s something to think about. Hofstadter’s Law: Things Always Take Longer Than Expected. A little graph. There’s more. I mean, there’s a lot of stuff here that’s really cool. Just cool reading and yeah. Parkinson’s Law: Why There’s So Little Time (and So Much To Do). Isn’t that the truth?
And this I’m almost finished with. I will probably have more of a review when I’m actually finished. I’m very close to the end. It’s amazing because this is a novella and it’s quite readable within a day. It’s just that I have not had a day to sit down and just read. I mean, I have, but I’m doing other things like cleaning this office.
And I have to tell you, I now have an empty space beside me that I can use as a kind of makeshift desk. It’s wonderful. It’s taken years for me to get to that point. Now I just have to figure out what to do with the rest of it. It’s all around me. Okay, that will be it then. And until next time, I’ll be seeing you. Take care.
