Lovely to see you back Claire.m 💕 You’ve chosen beautiful quotes to reflect the transition between seasons, and I think the Summer Book quote is especially pertinent for you right now. The stars are always there; you just can’t see them yet in the darkness. But the night air will soon cool, everything will come into sharp focus and then there will be stars galore. You are a brilliant North Star for your girl xx
I read The Offing for the first time this summer and I can’t stop thinking about it. Such a very old-feeling, resonant story.
I am also in the discomfort of transition stage in my life at the moment so I’m with you in that the change itself is probably good and needed, but the transition is awful 😅
Having said that, I love the change between seasons. ♥️ Perhaps because it’s cyclical so I know it won’t last forever?
I resonate with the reorientation. I love change but there's comfort in knowing how things will be and actually arriving to that place of comforting rhythm of things. Sending you love and grace for your transition. ❤️❤️❤️
Lovely to find you in my inbox again - I know you have been there a while, but hey, I'm like you reluctant to get back in to routines and that means keeping up with emails!! You describe exactly how I feel about the passing of summer. Funnily enough I am typing this sitting in my garden with the sun as warm and glorious as any day in August. I too read The Summer Book a few weeks ago, my first reading and I loved it. I also bought the Picnics poetry pamphlet which I have been dipping into in recent weeks!

Thank you so much for the mention, Claire! I enjoyed reading your perspective on transitions, as well as the book recs :)
