Ludwig Heider (1901)

"The young Austro-Hungarian cellist has recently come to public attention in the Parisian artistic circles due to their apparently promising composing talent. The world-touring soloist has become a common sight at the artistic gatherings in Montmartre."

(I’m playing this character on a letter-based RPG with some friends, I’m so excited!)

In an attempt to avoid phone calls in my 1980s #epistolary #novel, I had to resort to the use of a #Telex Machine during an emergency. British Telecom "Cheetah" 87C/32K Telex Machine, 1984.
Never Inconstant by Lyndsay Constable - Books of My Heart

Was anyone else ever curious about those eight years spent apart for Jane Austen’s second chance romance pair in Persuasion?  Or maybe what happened next for them and the other characters?  How about their time before the big break up?  A new to me author, Lyndsay Constable answers all those questions with her heartwarming, reflective […]

Like enjoying a good meal. Yes, you can get fast food but it’s already been proven it’s not healthy or sustainable in the long run…

"The art of correspondence contains the vitamins and minerals you need!"

I’ve got some lovely writing papers up on my Goimagine shop, including this one: A Eurasian Blue Tit. This is a European bird, found almost all across the continent.

I think it’s perfect for a nice cozy personal-time session with tea, some soft music, maybe a candle…

The Letter - The Short Place - Medium

Please promise you will forgive me after you’ve read this through. I am prepared to suffer many things, but I could not bear it if you couldn’t raise your eyes to me after this letter. I thought…
