Summer 2024 Behind-the-Scenes Reading

This summer was the summer of thesis reading.

There’s a very academic bent to this write-up, because, as I mentioned in last quarter’s write up. This was the summer of thesis reading. The write up you see before you is in no small part an extension of my thesis journaling, which was the half of my summer that wasn’t reading, meaning that even the non academic books here have been read in an academic mindset with an academic…

"Meet The Faces of Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja" by Fanlala from September 17th 2012. (this would've been the day RC9GN started officially airing)

Tree of Souls: The Mythology of Judiasm by Howard Schwartz

Tree of Souls is a collection of Jewish mythology like no other.

Note: This should have gone up Monday, July 22, but for whatever reason, it didn’t release from the queue. Apologies for the delay. Tree of Souls is a book that has been on my bookshelf for a number of years now. I first sought it out for it having the most clearly defined retelling of (and accompanying sources for) the story of the unfinished corner of creation that I could find. I picked it up…
