Also everything seems new and kind of shiny around here. It’s been a while.
I hereby decree that labs should be written with the intent of not making me feel illiterate.
The night smells of adolescent triumph.
I can taste it in the air.
These days I feel older than I ever have.
I suppose I am older than I’ve ever been.
But I don’t rescind the sentiment.
I am a writer who came of a sheltered life. A sheltered life can be a daring life as well. For all serious daring starts from within.

Animals in the Womb
They may grow to be very different beasts, but these breathtaking images reveal how surprisingly similar the beginning of life can be for the animal kingdom. Captured using revolutionary four-dimensional imaging technology and anatomically accurate models, scientists have managed to shed light on the world of mammals inside the womb. As diverse a bunch as they are - elephant, dog, dolphin and penguin are all shown united by their similar stages of development.
Scientists captured the images for a National Geographic Documentary called ‘Animals in the Womb’. The images were also used on a Channel 4 documentary ‘Animals in the Womb’ which aired in 2009. They were created by using a combination of ultrasound scans, computer graphics and small cameras -as well as some carefully created models- to document the animals’ development from conception to birth, and give an unparalleled glimpse into a world that few of us would ever expect to see.

The other involves orcs.

Authors.
You can’t give them away.
Well then, I don’t know what I’ll end up doing with myself.
