The personal weblog of Marc Zeedar.
I’d been wanting to see this and it was the airplane flight to Houston. I missed a little bit when I dozed off and the mono headphone connection was very pour, but I got the gist of it. It’s pretty good. It’s the simple, real-life tale of children’s author Beatrix Potter and how she got published and her tragic romance. Nothing too dramatic or exciting, but elegantly done.

Today I headed off to Texas for the REAL World conference in Austin. This is going to be a whirlwind trip as I’ll also visit relatives in Houston, Alabama, and Tennessee before return home next week. I am a bit nervous about this trip as it’s my first major travel after being diagnosed with diabetes last fall — I’ve been carefully controlling my diet and I’m not sure how well that will work on the road. So we’ll see how it goes.

I'm Marc Zeedar, writer and dreamer. I'm interested in writing, technology, programming, soccer, philosophy, engineering -- pretty much anything creative.
In college I was given an assignment to write a mini-biography. Rather than do the traditional, I wrote mine as a chronological list of the influential books in my life, explaining what they meant to me (both at the time and later). This turned out even better than I expected -- the saying "you are what you eat" really ought to be "you are what you read." So I decided to do that with my blog: it's a journal of what I'm reading, seeing, thinking, with the occasional unusual event thrown in. Feel free to add comments!
