Finished reading: The Lives of Saints by Leigh Bardugo 📚

I love that Leigh Bardugo wrote this and The Language of Thorns to give us the immersion of reading the same stories that the characters in the Grishaverse read.

💬📚 “I don’t remember my own story… I remember only how I fell into books, never to rise from their pages, how I was never truly awake until I began to dream of other worlds.” Leigh Bardugo, The Lives of Saints ❤️ Saint of the Book

🔖🌲 Read On Mother Trees: What Old-Growth Trees Taught Me About Parenting by Kaitlyn Teer (Catapult).

A gorgeous essay in conversation with The Giving Tree, How to Do Nothing, the work of Suzanne Simard, and climate change. Read it.

🔖🍿 Read The Mom in ‘Home Alone’ Is a Messy and Magnificent Model of Motherhood.

It’s easy to forget how hard Kate McAllister works to make sure her kid is okay. I probably need to watch Home Alone again. It’s been decades.

🔖📝♿ Read As a Disabled Writer, I Am a Rich Innovator by [Sarah Fawn Montgomery](www.sarahfawnmontgomery.com/l (Catapult).

This is my new favorite essay about being a disabled writer. I love it so much. It reminds me that the way I work is a way that gets work done.

Currently attending Dr. Anuja Cabraal’s session on emoji coding.

The analysis process and how we choose to analyze influences the results.

Well said, Dr. Cabraal!

Today is a day of widespread pain and miserable stomach cramps. Thanks a lot, chronic illness exacerbated by shifting hormones…
