Final trailer for Project Hail Mary was dropped yesterday. Hell yes. It's going to kick ass.

Warning: the trailer probably shows a bit too much, even if you've read the book.

I have decided. From today, I shall no longer identify as cisgenre.

Since I don't fit neatly into the genre I began with, I should be transgenre. But equally, if genre doesn't matter, perhaps agenre is the best label. Maybe even pangenre. All I can say is, I write what I write, I write my own special creations. Genre is a literary construct. Don't be bound by it. Be genre-curious, not just what it says on the bookshelf.

I now return you to your usual programming.

Genre is on a spectrum. Plenty of books are also genre-fluid and difficult to define. Genre can change after publication as well - we must be open-minded when it comes to genre identity.

Omnigenre? Pseudogenre? The genre in the bottle? (Hemingway or Hunter S Thompson, perhaps.)

My stories all use the pronoun "it".

Warhammer 40k is a top notch game.

On another forum, there are people arguing that atoms must be conscious because how else to explain human consciousness.

I have to ask a rock about that.

I always liked playing volleyball. Used to play in an adult league just for fun.

My brother used to play softball in an adult league. Now he participates in petanque tournaments around the country.

The only sports I ever stayed with for any length of time were hang gliding and archery, and I had to quit them both when I developed shoulder problems. Now that those problems are gone, I'm thinking of taking up archery again.

We're coming up on Valentine's day. When I was a kid, we used to give Valentine cards to everyone in the class. I'm not sure that they do that anymore.

It means the big dudes who protect the quarterback need to do a better job of not getting his ass killed.

Call me crazy, but a sport where you could get killed (literally) never appealed to me. Possibly because I'm not keen on physical injury and/or pain, especially when it happens to me. *shrug*

Some people might ask how I can live with that philosophy, and all I can say is: "Continually."

How about William Tell?
