“The author is dead” is less about “the author doesn’t matter” and more about “the authorial context is more relevant to some approaches of critique and literary analysis than others.”

The big tired is still here, so my productivity is to a minimum, but I am still accomplishing my daily goals, so it's okay. I am still in the biggest reading slump ever, but I don't think I'll get out of it until the end of exam season. I have very little brain power right now and I have to direct it into what matters, so studying. The only hing that might work at the moment is an audiobook, but I haven't picked a new one yet. I am still reading stuff for uni, so it's not like I am not reading at all, but I tend to consider what I read in my free time as something separate. I cannot wait to get back to A Prayer For The Crown Shy, because I was really enjoying myself.

Today's productivity:

finished writing some notes on the historical sources I have read in the past few weeks

wrote the outline of my paper

wrote all the footnotes beforehand

signed up for my history exam in July

finished my second English lit outloud review and started my last big review (which I plan on continuing and finishing tomorrow and on Saturday)
