Life, work and other rambles // In this letter, you'll find new novel meanderings, book release news, an excerpt from Nova Weetman about creativity & information about a writers retreat in Tuscany ...
I can really relate to your comment that writing is seasonal - once in the throes of a book it can become all-consuming, and writing is like a brightly burning fire, but once the fuel is spent, I can sit with the embers for a while and other things take front seat (choose your mixed metaphor!).
Also, sending you hugs in your time of grief. I'm there, too, and can relate to just needing time with family - and alone - to let it be.
Loving this Zanni! And a warm welcome to writing on Substack!
Thank you! I’m liking it here!

What a beautiful way to describe it Cate! I love that idea of sitting with the embers. X
