Update: WorldCon, a New Book Deal, and some Great Reviews
WorldCon LA. What a trip.
I hardly know where to begin, or end, and certainly can’t cover the conversations, panels, the laughter had, the old friends reunited with, and new friends made. It was a whirlwind, and on the last night, the Monday, when much of the con had gone home and the convention rooms lay empty, I wandered through them with an overwhelming sense of nostalgia.

quote
“Good writing is the hardest form of thinking. It involves the agony of turning profoundly difficult thoughts into lucid form, then forcing them into the tight-fitting uniform of language, making them visible and clear. If the writing is good, then the result seems effortless and inevitable. But when you want to say something life-changing or ineffable in a single sentence, you face both the limitations of the sentence itself and the extent of your own talent.”

“Writing is thinking. To write well is to think clearly. That's why it's so hard."

“When our decision-making is nurtured by corporate algorithm, when so many of our experiences are their simulations of experience, when we’ve outsourced our memories to be stored and filed away, by them. When our every moment is sampled, deconstructed, and built back into Trojans—advertising, architecture, news reports—that reformat our lives. How can we exist, then, when we’re someone else’s dream? They create these cities, Jack, and cities are huge external memory devices. But the memories are not ours, always those of others.”

“They create the spaces within which we live our lives, moulding us to fit into the places they define—public or private, park or car park. We are created and re-created by our spaces. It’s a constant feedback loop. Space shapes behaviour—what you can do in it, what you can’t. It’s identity. Here, we can exist, in a space not fully imaged, but once their minds return to this place, we will be gone.”
