Thud. And stuff.

1018 words finishes 3.15. (1207 total.)

Unfortunately, I am utterly unsure about how 3.16 starts or I'd do a few lines to get enough that I don't have a blank page problem with it.


Meanwhile, I need to bump acquisition of the Pyramid Texts and the Coffin Texts and commentaries thereupon up in priority, because some part of my mind is fixed on the notion of modernising The Book of Coming Forth By Day into the form of a Lonely Planet-style Guide to the Duat (suitable for perusal by the would-be traveller or gift to the recently deceased on the occasion of their burial!). I'm clearly having one of my religious crackpot days. At least I like my derangement well-researched.

(I'll use the Anpu icon for this. Not the Discordian one. But only barely.)

I've just finished reading The Great Divorce by C.S. Lewis, which it strikes me might almost be the Christian equivalent...

I had an idea once for a mini-LARP based on the soul's journey through the Duat. Never did anything with it, because I don't know those texts nearly well enough. (However, that's part of the research I need do for the Bronze Age myth game I want to run, because the PCs will end up there somehow...)

Your latest essays on your site are interesting. :) I especially liked the community one, since community is something I've been thinking about a lot lately.

Thanks. :) (I had a theologically productive Easter, apparently.)

Got more stuff to write, waugh. :}

I'll be interested to see it. :)
