I received the full peer reviews for my next book and they are so positive and supportive! I’m so grateful to get such thoughtful, generous, and rigorous feedback. Excited to use these to tweak and finalize the manuscript. If you are curious you can read all the draft chapters online. http://www.trevorowens.org/2022/07/open-review-of-the-second-half-of-after-disruption-a-future-for-cultural-memory/

@eirikur Glad you liked it. That ending kind of came out of nowhere. I knew I wanted to end it on the Mississippi and originally it was meant to be a personal reflection but when I sat down to write, it was the Eko story that came out.

Just finished "Living in Data" by @jerthorp. Really interesting book, documenting an enviable career, the datafication of everything and the gazillion satellite concerns surrounding it. Loved the solarpunk data citizenry vignette at the end.
Today's Tumbleword is a minor eccentricity, or the weaker part of a sword blade.
Go forth and tumble.
Today's Tumbleword means 'made of brass' but get used to describe things that are extra bold and shameless.
Go forth and tumble!

Go forth and tumble!

Today's tumbleword is IMBRUE.
Your job is to tumble it, one letter at a time, into as many new words as you can.
You have 42 tumbles.
You can make the word shorter but it'll cost you 1/3 of your tumbles.
Give it a try:
It's possible that after a month and a half I'm getting better at this game that I made.
