The big difference in narration between real life/fiction is whether more conflict makes things worse/better, respectively.

Bone Fairy

Bone fairies live in reflective lakes and ponds.

When kids get loose teeth, they show the mirror, and that’s how the Tooth Fairy knows to come get it.

When you lean over a reflective lake, the Bone Fairy is looking up through your reflection, and she’s considering whether or not to get you.

If you only empathize with people you agree with, you’re not really empathic. It’s like doing research and only taking the evidence that supports your preexisting beliefs.

Keyboards

I just bought a Unicomp buckling spring keyboard, and it is fantastic. The feel of the keys is beyond anything I’ve ever used. The clicking is perfect.

I do admit that if I was in a shared office and my office mate had one of these, I might contemplate murder. But I’m not and don’t. Social distancing ftw!

Maybe the best keyboard I’ve ever used. The form factor is a little weird. It’s thicker than I’m used to, and the buttons aren’t quite as wide as I’d like. The pressing of the buttons is top notch, though. If in a few million key presses it’s still working well, it will be exceptional.

Exactly the right amount of clicking. Exactly the right feel of resistance.

Two thumbs up.
