Ep. 6: The Importance of Being Earnest

I’ve scuttled back under my duvet for this week’s pebble inspection. I take another run at a piece I discussed back in episode two, following feedback and some fairly substantial rewrites. I wonder whether diorama is the right word, I take time to appreciate noise-cancelling headphones and the physics of helium balloons, all while a one-hundred-foot-tall skeleton haunts the streets and skies of London and I start seeing double.
