A Meme, A Posting Meme

[raven]

So some people do this meme in December and ask their friends to give them things to talk about, which I always think is really cool and love reading all the answers. I am choosing to do it in August/September because that's also where the year begins, for many of us, and because now feels like a good time when I'm also feeling I don't have much in me to say.

So, have at it, if there's anything you'd like me to write about I will try. I reserve the right not to answer, but life, work, friends, race and gender, fandom, writing, books, controversial opinions (or just plain opinions) and anything else, all fair game.
