I’m doing something a bit different this week. It being a holiday here in the States, I’m taking an extra day to catch up on reading, research, and enjoying a “slow” day. We’ll be back to regular programming on Friday.
In the mean time, here’s what I’ve been reading on the recent “slow” movements:
Rebecca Solnit on the virtue of meandering non-fiction.
Mary Lindemann’s Presidential Address on “Slow History.”
Finally, Cal Newport on George Lucas’ writing tower, from which he wrote a certain niche, seldom known film series.
Have a lovely week, and happy Thanksgiving, fellow Americans!
