I haven’t been writing much lately for various reasons: Accidentally reading every take on newsletters to be found on the internet! Burnout! Feeling crushed by the state of the world! Going back and forth to the beach for weeks at a time! It happens. I have, however, been practicing calligraphy. And it is writing, sort of. Even if it's a stream of consciousness or repeating a Britney Spears lyric (“Oops I did it again”) or doodling “L O L” over and over again—I’ll count it.
This was lovely. Reminds me of the zen practice of drawing a circle. The mindfulness of calligraphy was transferred beautifully into the writing here. Thank you for this gift.
