I started spring cleaning earlier this month. Then I started moving furniture. After single-handedly moving a couch, a coffee table, one chair and a houseplant that weighs more than me, things are looking up. There is far less dust and much less inertia. In the process, I unearthed a few sketches and assorted book ideas. I loosely based the sketches above on an autumnal road trip my grandparents took us on, as teenagers. The highlight of the trip was definitely eating fried chicken and brownies outside the legendary Willey House on a glorious October day.
Other things:
I am itching to get my hands on a copy of The Book That No One Wanted to Read.
The Atelier Forum Podcast is great.
Working on book sketches, the mental bandwidth for music with words just isn’t there, so I’m back to adding things to this Television/Movie Music playlist. Any and all suggestions are welcome.
I’m taking my relationship with coffee to the next level and planted coffee tree seeds this weekend. This coffee plant tutorial is helpful. The good news is they’re comparatively easy to grow. The bad news is I will not be perking any of my own beans for years and years. Patience, young grasshopper?
