McGoohan Apr 2019 8:24am, 25 Apr 2019 39,297 posts	0 McGoohan Looky here. It's the 25th and time's winged chariot is on fire, burned by the dystopian sonofaguns of F451. It is a particularly exciting time as we have come to the end of the current cycle of choosination. Westmoors, you may stick your hand in the ballpit of choosination and pull out one of the following gorgeous names: Serendippily Bintmcskint Bazoaxe postieboy Chrisull quimby westmoors Night-owl LindsD The Scribbler Little Nemo McGoohan DazTheSlug GregP Diogenes Lorraine I notice that Columba isn't in the choosination list - but I'm guessing would still like to be in it? Westmoors - it's over to you
westmoors Apr 2019 9:33am, 25 Apr 2019 3,181 posts	0 westmoors Ooh, let me put those names into my randomiser and see what comes out...
McGoohan Apr 2019 9:45am, 25 Apr 2019 39,304 posts	0 McGoohan I see that technically, I have included you which might seem wrong as you've just choosinated, but this is a new cycle, a new dawn.
GregP Apr 2019 10:49am, 25 Apr 2019 112,076 posts	0 GregP I have no problem with a choosinator going two months on the bounce. No problem at all. Since we've been talking a lot about travel writing over the way, it's timely to ask where we stand on the choosination of non-fiction.
McGoohan Apr 2019 10:52am, 25 Apr 2019 39,306 posts	0 McGoohan Well, we have had some non-fic chooses already: Blood River t'Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks Three Men in a Boat That Music/Mental health one The Eric Newby Hindu Khush thing
McGoohan Apr 2019 10:54am, 25 Apr 2019 39,307 posts	0 McGoohan Oh and Bye Mam I Love You of course. I've read 4 out of those 6
Diogenes Apr 2019 10:57am, 25 Apr 2019 36,154 posts	0 Diogenes What was the music/mental health one?
McGoohan Apr 2019 11:01am, 25 Apr 2019 39,308 posts	0 McGoohan And I suppose you could say that of those, Blood River, Three Men in a Boat and the Eric Newby are travel writing, so we've got form. I have read some decent non-fic recently though I'm not a natural non-fic reader. I like the way a novel can draw you in and make you part of a world that doesn't often happen in non-fic.
