Been a bit of a quiet season for deeper reading so I haven't added much here.

  • I'm currently powering through the final stretch of the Wheel of Time books (in the last half of the last one). For those that don't know, this is a 14 volume fantasy series. I've attempted it twice before and lost momentum. I started the series from the beginning again in April and have been pushing to accomplish it by the end of the year.

  • I've also been spending more time in the mornings doing some reflective work on my life. I'm working on building out a 5-10 year vision and it's got a lot of my headspace. So less time for reading.

  • Also, I turned 40 today.

“Small things were important. Seconds were small things, and if you heaped enough of those on top of one another, they became a man’s life.” (from Towers of Midnight, book 13 in the Wheel of Time)
