Holiday Newsletter

[edelsont]

Happy holidays, y'all!

What?  You think it's a little late for that?  Give me a break: it's a holiday tomorrow, here in the USA.

Anyway, this will be [part of] my version of a "holiday newsletter."

Since I'm posting it here in my Dreamwidth journal, rather than distributing it via email, it is potentially visible to the whole Internet.  That constrains the scope some: I'll be very hesitant to post any personal information about anyone but myself.

I see this thing as having three sections, each representing a category of my activities: computer programming, writing, and social interaction.

Computer programming: I do a fair bit of it, though I'm thoroughly retired from doing it for money.  I do it for fun, and hoping that it will be useful—to me, at least.

For a while now, I've been doing most of this in a programming language called Clojure.  Best guess: most of the people reading this won't have heard of it; if you have, give me a shout!

I've written a program that calculates my income tax, and currently I am finishing the updating and testing for the 2022 tax year.

Writing: my scribbles on various topics may mostly be found at my personal home page at The Well.  The newest items, at present, are linked from the Fiction and Poetry page.

That's two of the three sections that I promised you.  The last one, "social interaction," will be left for another journal entry (or, who knows, maybe more than one!).
