I finished The Subtle Knife (His Dark Materials, Book 2) last week but am taking a break before starting the final book. It’s interesting, and reading that it’s a retelling of Milton’s Paradise Lost makes me want to dive into that epic poem (some day). For now, I’m reading some early pulp detective stories in Raymond Chandler: Stories and Early Novels (Library of America), which I found at a neighborhood used book store, Every Other Book. Hardboiled.

I have uploaded a batch of short songs I recorded over the past few months. They were meant as interstitial music, but they’ve taken on a life of their own. I intended them to be exercises in brevity—hence: Nofi—Short Fictions (34.8 MB archive):

1. Delivering Parenth (3:25, 6.28 MB MP3)
2. Eternus Unveiled (0:40, 1.43 MB MP3)

5. Somber Fungi (2:32, 4.76 MB MP3)
6. Spellbindery (1:31, 2.89 MB MP3)
7. The Epic Doctrine (0:54, 1.86 MB MP3)
8. Things Stolen and Returned (5:00, 8.52 MB MP3)
9. Thus Smote Magbra… (2:08, 4.41 MB MP3)
