Love & Hate

Things that Big Dumb Object has loved and hated this week:

Loved

  • Good telly yet again. In fact too much to watch all of it. Great episodes of Lost, Being Human, The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Hustle.
  • Seeing the sun. For a while.
  • Stylish indie SF being released to the web. It seems to be a valid route for films and comics, somehow books still seem at odds with the web as a distribution channel.
  • Writing every day.
  • The Arthur C. Clarke Award submissions for 2009. Ready made reading list. I don't envy the judges, there are some big books in there. BDO's shortlist to follow soon.

 

Hated

  • Hustle finishing. The standard six episode series in the UK is just not long enough.
  • Twitter overload! If only Tweetdeck handled multiple accounts everything might be manageable.
  • Writing every day still not resulting in finished stories.
  • The inbox piling up.
