Read: Now We Shall Be Entirely Free by Andrew Miller

After The Land in Winter, this turned out to be quite different. Reminded me of Kidnapped! An atrocity in Spain, an English solider, running from another sent to kill him, heads for the Hebrides. Excitement & sympathy for all the characters.

Below them, the last of the drinkers had perfected himself and swum away into the summer night. One by one, the landlady’s breath put out the stars.

There were tears on his cheeks. He hoped the doorkeeper, this woman whose name he had failed to learn, might notice them

I’m finding that the simpler approach of FSE and the block editor is better. It may have had a bad start, but it has noticeably improved over the last few years. It may never please folks who will only use the “classic” editor. I understand. I’m going to be VERY conscious of those folks as I advocate for the “new” WordPress in the days to come. My hope is to demonstrate why it’s better in coming posts

I am looking forward to seeing these posts pop up in my reader.

Likes It’s really simple by Dave Winer.

The name Really Simple Syndication is supposed to make you smile, while most techie formats make you want to pull your hair out. RSS reads pretty well even if you know nothing about feeds and XML. I wish the browser people hadn’t insisted on masking it with ugly CSS style sheets. I like lifting the hood of a car to see what’s there even though I don’t know what many of the things in there do. I learn by doing it

RSS continues to make me smile, thanks Dave.
