Dark Light

Quiet work week, so we’ll skip that. Decided that I’d had enough of print statements, and moved both Lifestream and Lampstand over to use Python logging instead for everything outputty. Lampstand also needs a pass to separate output into levels, right now everything’s at INFO.

Positive feedback on some creative writing I did recently – on tumblr, and in scraps elsewhere – has led me to want to carve out time to get the novel moving forward again. I need to suppress the urge to kill it with fire and start from scratch, but right now it’s plodding a bit.

Somewhere between Rest and Play lies Odyssey work this week. A good Story Team meeting at the weekend has set some flags out for the year, and indeed next, and then I spent a few hours putting together the Odyssey T-Shirt shop, to supplement our costume & props budget with mercenary goodness.

Somewhere over the last week I’ve also carved out 13 hours to watch the full first series of Daredevil on Netflix, which I enjoyed a lot, and should turn into another entry shortly…

  1. It’s a genre-blasting book arching fantasy elements over a near future city, with government conspiracies matched against ancient evil.

    Which means it’ll get shelved with the rest of the urban fantasy.

  2. Offhand I don’t know the technical term for the book version of a beta tester, but if you require one sign me up.

Age of Ultron

There was a movie. It's... Um. Let's start with this: The following review contains spoilers for Age of Ultron. They start after the following paragraph, which is why you need to click the link to read the rest. Right, so my problem with AoU is that it's a comic book event series. Its purpose is to make people need to go and see it to wrap up the past and understand the future episodes. It's the exact kind of Age Of Secret War On Ultimate Earth cross-francise bullshit that generally kicks me off any super-hero comic series I've started to get into. Suddenly, in order to follow the arc of a character I need to buy twelve comics across nine series, five of which my local shop doesn't carry. The actual plot of the movie doesn't really maintain its own momentum.
