Coming home from vacation to a pile of fresh comics is the best! 😎

I should have just stuck with trying to work through my already long reading list...

American self-help books are not for me

I have had a recent brush with self-improvement/self-help/personal development books. Call them what you will, books where prescriptions of mental and physical exercises are meted out in an attempt…

The pile of shame. It’s like this every year I go to a big event like Thought Bubble or LICAF. I think I’ll tackle the floppies first and maybe make it look a bit tidier. #comics #comicbooks #graphicnovel #reading #readingpile #shelfie

I would love to see your reading pile – however big, small, tidy or chaotic. Tell me about it; what should be added to my own mountain?

Here's mine. Lagging a bit with a few books because I have too many on the go at once, but I'll finish Melissa Febos's amazing essays on writing today. Christmas will see me through Jamie, James and Hughes. I really need to open Deakin again.

05.00. A short spell shivering outside under an immense starry sky, watching the Leonids – just three meteors scything through the dark – then inside to warmth and books and coffee. And all is well.

Deep time outside and in today, and Laurie Lee’s early poetry to get me ready for writing about my own past. #leonids #books #reading #ReadingPile

I started reading #TheWordForWorldIsForest by Ursula K Le Guin last night, written during the Vietnam war. The basic idea that war changes even the victims, sometimes for the worse, is interesting. I don't think #Ukraine will ever be the same after this conflict. Even defending yourself, changes you

Someone doesn’t like it when books are getting more attention than he is. #dog #dogsofmastadon #mastodogs #books #ReadingPile

My day usually starts at 5.00am – I appreciate the silence before the world wakes, a good time for reading (and an excuse to squeeze extra cups of black coffee into the morning ☕️).

Two books this morning: returning to Slad with Laurie Lee, and to vanished wildwoods with Oliver Rackham. Lee, I love – a local hero, whose writing is as fresh as ever. #ReadingPile #books #reading

I’m still introducing myself, so let’s talk BOOKS. I’m studying for an MA in nature & travel writing, and contributing reviews to The Great Outdoors magazine. Both have lent focus to my usually haphazard reading choices. Currently I’m reading a lot about geology and trees, for my own book project, and making time to enjoy a little Murakami.

On the rug: previous book on rocks, next book on trees. On my bedside table: other lovely things. #books #ReadingPile #reading #naturewriting #introductions
