Do you have a blog?

I had one at the time when a novella of mine was published. However, I've completely lost enthusiasm for so many things, including writing, since my mother passed away. Although I have to concede that even the people who appreciated my fiction were often confused by it...which is something I now find to be instructive in light of my autism.

I had a go with writing during last year, I did write 2 short stories, they're on my blog, and few chapters from sci-fi book I was going to write, and then it stopped, but the book is still in my head

I think I'd have to be a lot more intelligent than I am to write sci-fi. I do, though, love the large themes of works like 'Stalker', 'Solaris', etc.

I watched Stalker for the first time about four years ago and loved it. The Weird Studies podcast did a great ep on it, talking about its great depiction of the concept of zones, liminality, and other things. It helped me get a better handle on it though just as an immersive mood piece it’s something in itself

Ha. I had the same with polish classes. That memory indexing is a recently (I had that idea 8 years ago) improved byproduct of being unable to keep up with making notes at school

Your brilliance is rather wasted on me, mate - I had the lowest-possible passing mark on my mathematics exam(!) I was physically punished, at school, for being so terrible at Maths (something that wasn't actually my fault, I now see).

My is dreadful with names

But everything else is good

Numbers are easy

I developed sort of memory indexing system, that flags what I want in long term memory, so it's a lot less random. and with numbers it works 100% for life. Requires daily 'mental meditation', and with numbers additionally I need to repeat 100x that number in my head after number occurs, to get used its division into sort of syllables, where number syllable is few digits tied together, I Don't know how to explain it. LOL

I'd never be able to keep all the details included in that novel in my mind - I even got confused by the various factions and their abilities. My memory is dreadful.
