“She had never been aware that she was afraid, that she feared the world’s vastness and diversity, it’s violence too.” - The Girl Who Reads On The Metro, Christine Féret-Fleury
Never could resist a book about books…
Holiday reading stack! That’s enough for a week, right? I’ll take my kindle as well, just in case…😝
Happy holidays to me! Had a real brain fog day today so grateful to know I’ve got a lovely chilled week ahead with my beloved, the pup and a big stack of books!
“I’m trying to speak - to write - the truth. I’m trying to be clear. I’m not interested in being fancy, or even original. Clarity and truth will be plenty, if I can only achieve them.” - The Parable of the Sower, Octavia E Butler
“We are coming apart. We are a rope, breaking, a single strand at a time.”
In 2020, I treated myself to the Whitworth backpack by @kulabags. I’d been looking for a sustainably made backpack that didn’t cost the earth and still looked stylish. When I first came across Kula I was a little sceptical. Backpacks made of paper?! I wasn’t convinced they would be that durable. But they we’re super affordable and I loved the look of them so I figured I’d give them a go.
Over the last few years, my professional life has changed dramatically. Since the age of 18, I have trained and worked in various roles to support young people. That was the career path I chose. I worked incredibly hard at it. And I loved it. Until I didn’t. Until it took more from me than I could give and the stress and exhaustion overtook the reward and passion. So I made a change. It was a leap into the unknown. The only things that made me feel secure in that choice were a)knowing I was going to be working with brilliant people and b) knowing it would give me the opportunity to write. I had nothing else.
The silver lining of constantly waking up super early for no reason? Lots of time to read and snuggle our pup.❤️
