Wednesday Night Colouring Party
There was a quote that I came across in venus zine, in an interview with Miranda July:

venus zine: You haven't worked a day job since your early 20s, yet your characters generally have crappy jobs.

[i'm just going to grab a few of my favourite bits because I'm lazy]

miranda july:
...At first they're excited to get jobs and then they're startled to realize how horrible it is...

...The idea that you might end up in a job that doesn't allow you to be who you are, over the course of a lifetime, is still one of the most chilling nightmares for me...

...So, to me, these jobs that my characters have are very loaded, they immediately suggest a complex character to me, a woman who is, say, a secretary, but also a vigilante on behalf of her own soul.

I suspect I should likely read her book. Anyone reading anything cool?
I'm halfway through Swedish author Henning Mankell's "the White Lioness" and it is quite enjoyable.
