scenes and encounters
This past weekend, I had the joy of setting up a table at a local craft fair! It’s been so long since I’ve sat with my books and talked to people about them. Really thankful for the opportunity, and for the kind staff and volunteers who welcomed me! I’m pretty sure I was the only […]

Wow, these past couple of weeks have felt long! Seriously, how is it still October. Part of this time warp was due to starting a job at a hardware store.

metaphorical cup of coffee
So, the floor desk I wrote about last time has been replaced by a more standard set up; being over 30, it turns out it’s uncomfortable to sit on the floor for more than twenty minutes at a time! I have a table and a swivel chair now, which is helping me get more on […]

facing the future
Well, it’s been awhile! Most of my summer was spent at a cottage with poor internet. But I’m back in a city with a lot more connectivity, and some exciting updates! Please join me in marveling at this stunning portrait by the wonderful Al Hess! When I saw he had a commissions spot open, I […]
