Music-Learning Notes 26/02/2023

Since I’m only going to be posting these notes once or twice a year, and since more advanced libraries also have music rooms (or options to listen/borrow music CDs/vinyl/tapes/etc), I’m returning my music-learning notes here. Good continuity since I’m also posting about chess and language learning, anyway. I’ve been on quite a journey since last … Continue reading Music-Learning Notes 26/02/2023

Language and Chess Notes 12/02/2022

I thought a lot about whether I wanted to reboot these blog posts. In a sense I felt sheepish about posting language posts given most of the languages I’m learning are through Duolingo. But then I thought about it: why are people being shamed for learning through Duolingo? Not everyone can afford language tutors or … Continue reading Language and Chess Notes 12/02/2022

What I’m Currently Reading 12/02/2023

I’m starting 2023 strong by reading a gratifying amount of books. The highlights thusfar are Shveta Thakrar’s Star Daughter, Angela Slatter’s The Bone Lantern (this glorious author gifted me a small parcel of her books as a get-well present and I feel so very lucky indeed!). Run, do not walk to get The Bone Lantern … Continue reading What I’m Currently Reading 12/02/2023

Short Fiction I Enjoyed from November-December 2022

Starting from this issue, I’m going to be grouping these posts (each post will range from 2-3 months worth of readings, depending on how busy I am). It feels the only way I’ll be able to catch up on all my readings, truthfully! Continue reading Short Fiction I Enjoyed from November-December 2022

What I’m Currently Reading 11/10/2022

I actually have 11 fiction books in my current reading list now (not even bothering to count monographs and academic collections plus articles). More than half of those are for research articles I am writing. As for the other half: I am still slowly rereading The Lord of The Rings, and have finished rereading The … Continue reading What I’m Currently Reading 11/10/2022

Short Fiction I Enjoyed from June 2022

Hello! I am frighteningly behind on these roundups because from 4 July 2022 to 5 August 2022 I was hospitalised for spine injury (acute exacerbation of prolapsed inverted disc, says the medical report) and was bedridden for nearly that whole time. Then came a lot of grading (in fact, I was grading and supervising even … Continue reading Short Fiction I Enjoyed from June 2022
