PDFs (somehow) need to have the ability to change fonts and stuff, like kindles. My eyes are cooked.

Sure am. I've started on the 13+ age group since they didn't have too many entries. But man, kids are creative. Love seeing the stuff they come up with.

I underestimated how many more would come in today. Over 110 entries now!

The writing competition blew up over the weekend. Ended up with 83 entries with maybe some more coming in today. I am super proud of the effort.

A while back I mentioned the writing competition I am running with the help of Libraries Tasmania. There are 2 days left and we have ~~40~~ 46 entries so far. It's gone so much better than I thought it would. I'm really happy with the entries, especially since the second biggest library/area got flooded so might have missed out on a few entries from kids who didn't know about it.

Next year, if they want to do it again, I'm going to add another field for comics/graphic novels.

I'm looking at that option now. It's a matter of what units are available and when, which is annoying.

Lucky for me most of those don't apply, lol. But I do understand your point. I doubt I'll do it, it's nice to dream though.

I've worked out a potential study plan that would have me finish uni by the end of 2026. It would require doing 22 units over 6 teaching periods.

It would completely cook my brain (if I even passed) but gosh it's tempting. I just wanna get out of here and change careers. But the current plan is to finish end of 2027. Which really isn't so bad.

I order a half and half for dinner tonight. It's what has kept me going today.
