Sarah McLachlan is touring her Fumbling Towards Ecstasy album! Very tempted :)

Can't stop thinking about unexpected ways to operate as a writer. Thank you for that burst of inspiration Caroline ❤️

Unexpected.. A Handful of Dust. Read at 15 and again now. Forgetting and then remembering how unexpected the heartbreaking ending was.

Finding solace in Camomile Tea with newly made above Cashew nut milk (smooth and delicious, unexpected) , whilst lighting a candle at a table with forced forsythia, reading Dr. Zhivago.

Being a Waugh, I collected most of his works, drawn to melancholy and acid wit. His bitter satires are refreshing.

Brideshead Revisited, Vile Bodies, Decline and Fall, Handful of Dust etc etc.. interesting reads😊
