Good evening, lovely people! Books have a way of showing up for you that very few other things can match. They're always there when you need them, never asking anything back. Monday feels like a good day to remember just how much that's worth.

Have a Magnificent Monday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, my lovelies! It's National Red Rose Day today, and this quote has always charmed me, because there's something so genuinely lovely about the idea of a garden full of roses as something alive and attentive. To me, it feels very much in keeping with the way the old stories always understood the natural world to be.

Have a Fabulous Friday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, wonderful people! Some books really do have that quality, the ones that arrive at exactly the right moment and open something up in you that you didn't know was waiting to be opened. It's worth thinking about which ones have done that for you and why.

Have a Thoughtful Thursday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, my lovelies! There's a real and specific satisfaction in this that anyone who's ever finished making something will recognise immediately. Whether that's a piece of writing, a garden bed, or a meal, it's that particular quiet pleasure of having added something to the world that didn't exist before.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Everyone comes into the world with a job to do

Everyone comes into the world with a job to do—

I don’t mean working for a company, a corporation—

we were all given gifts to share, even the animals,

even the plants, minerals, clouds

. . . all beings.

From ‘Conflict Resolution for Holy Beings’ by Native American Poet Laureate Joy Harjo

Good morning, everyone! There's something very appealing about this habit, carrying both the words of others and a space for your own wherever you go. It's a reminder that reading and writing have always belonged together, each one feeding the other in ways that are hard to unpick.

Have a Terrific Tuesday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, lovely people! Today is World Ocean Day, and it feels like a good moment to pause and think about just how vast and extraordinary the sea actually is. It's older than almost anything else we can name and still largely unknown to us, which is both humbling and quietly thrilling.

Have a Magnificent Monday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Good morning, all! This quote has stayed with me since I first came across it because it gets at something true about the experience of reading, that you can't always predict which book is going to be the one that quietly rearranges something inside you, and that's a rather wonderful thing to sit with going into the weekend.

Have a Fabulous Friday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Rejecting her drama when my calm was judged as a failure.

A pull quote from Calling Out the Shadows, chapter 17. By Neal Winsomer.
