The mornings are so dark now, I can look outside and stretch to imagine snow falling. It's always a paradigm shift, when you are suddenly able to imagine the season ahead of you. Already, summer's heat is difficult to remember in any real sensual way.
Somehow, these days have been just right for writing in though. I'm working on a few stories for various things and will try to share them here if they're published, though I'll probably just mention them in some oblique way and let those of you who are interested seek them out. If it's not apparent by now, I'm not one for pushing my work in other spheres...
I do want to thank all of those of you who added your voice to the pinkwashing issues raised last week. Together, we managed to get quite a bit of extra coverage (I left links in the comment field of last Friday's post). Of course, we barely tipped the iceberg...
Ah I missed being here this week! I hope to be back in fine fettle for you on Sunday!
In the meantime, have a lovely weekend!
Would love to hear more about your stories.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Thanks Jen - have a great weekend too!
DeleteGet better very soon, Jane!
ReplyDeleteThanks Danielle! Colds suck. Wishing you a good weekend!
DeleteAw, I hope you feel better. Here's my remedy for colds, particularly with coughs attached: slice up some fresh ginger, cover with water, and add cloves and a star anise. Simmer for fifteen minutes or so, then strain and add a pinch of cayenne, and honey and fresh lemon juice to taste.
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty much my rememdy 'cept I add all that to whiskey!! :)
DeleteHope you're feeling back to normal soon.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, I can imagine the upcoming Winter months now. I've had to shift from bare legs to stockings this week. In a matter of days, I can't remember what it was like to be in 40 degree C heat/humidity!
Have a great weekend, Jane!
You too, Alice! xx
DeleteHip hip hooray, Jane! I love this promise of a Sunday Best. I hold my breath each weekend, hoping one will appear. This is a welcome spoiler!
ReplyDeleteYours is a truly self-possessed, genuine, and restful space on the internet. I'm so glad you blog.
Feel well soon!
Ach, such a lovely comment. Thank you so much for leaving it!
DeleteFeel better Jane! I wish I could send you some of my grandmother's chicken soup (which I'm convinced has magical healing powers).
ReplyDeleteI would like to read your stories in print, however, I will seek them out regardless - I'll probably pester you via email to read them.
Ha! What a lovely sentiment. I feel the same about Flanagan's hot toddys!!
ReplyDeleteI really feel embarrassed mentioning my stories. I don't think they deserve to be on your radar. I'm told I'm precious about my writing but I really am convinced it's mostly shit. But I'll try to muster courage to share. xx
