…curious… bibi story . not sure how I feel about it . almost a little magical realism esque. Not sure i agree with the ending but then again that’s life. Unexpected which is good i guess. hm.

This Blessed House was great and also felt like something written for an English class? But loved the scene at the end when they’re all in the attic and he’s just down there. How perfectly captured. Nice story. Not sure thoughts on the character development though ?

For some reason I’m drawn to the idea of dividing your day into 8 segments

(Cont from last note) That’s what me being in Senegal is partly all about

Sometimes all you need is some outside change or force that pushes you out of your routine or forces you guys to do something slightly silly to break out of the closed system/cycle of stagnation. Eg a power outage.
