Can't believe I've been here almost 17 years. Not gone from here yet, but going forward I hope you'll find me on the butterfly place (where the skies are bluer) at lesliefarnsworth or stay in touch via my Letter: observingleslie.com/subscribe I don't want to miss you, you know.

Character naming is far too fun. How do other people do it? I have some very ridiculous techniques, but I love 'em. There have to be additional methods to try, though!

Went to write “go to grocery” on task list and it was autocorrected to “go to thievery” and clearly my phone’s got nefarious ends.

Every time I see a book review complaining about an “unlikeable protagonist” or “unlikeable characters,” I think, “Well hey now. Sounds like I just found me a new book to read.”

November 1 on the Catholic calendar is All Saint’s Day. The French have blended the term, making November 1 “la Toussaint” in French parlance. And it's the reason why, in France, you never give a person mums. Not a living person, anyway. observingleslie.com/magazine/how-t…

For my Halloween contribution, how about this utterly frightening knobbly-to-skeletal permanent sculpture outside a hospital building here in town? Title: Transsubstantiation Sculptor: Maria Zsuzsa de Faykod

How often do all of you back up your files? I know they're in the cloud and yada yada, but other than that, I mean.

Really loving the novella lately, especially when read between some larger novels. Any recommendations? (Just in case: Novellas are those little fiction gems in the ~20-40k word count range.)

Seems unreasonable to assume seasons don’t affect humans when they affect everything else. Rather than fight the season, as I have in the past, I'm taking comfort in this musing o' mine. observingleslie.com/magazine/when-…
