I loved the mixtape you put together this week. I have not heard of any of the artists in this mix and listened to the tracks you selected and then some. Your selection provided just the musical interlude I needed on this bleak snowy day.
I read the Joanna Fields’s book (she wrote A Life of One’s Own under a pseudonym) in high school - found a copy at a used bookstore. Very interesting book about the author’s inner life - and unfortunately I lost the book - would like to reread it 50 years later and see how her words resonate.
Fingers crossed we will be able to see the eclipse! So cool that we will actually be able to hear its effects through animals. Every year, I use eclipse season as a time to shed the old ways and ideas I had for myself that are no longer working, to create space for newness of all kinds. It’s been a great time to reflect on my creativity and how I go about sharing and expressing with the world. The cool thing about eclipses is… they can hold whatever meaning you choose them to hold.
Good stuff. I love #7 the part about reading older books. On my shelf for a year, and I need to get to it is "The Count of Monte Cristo" ... Can't believe I haven't gotten to it yet. I recently read "A Wrinkle in Time" and love that one. Gave the 3 book set to my 10 year old granddaughter last fall. As for my reading, I seem to have four or five books going at a time! And, I always look forward to "all" the stuff you give information about.
Austin, I’ve been loving how much value you pack in spades ♠️ Thank you for sharing all these dope vibes with so much sazón! It’s a fly way to kick off the weekend✨
I've opened so many of the links into new tabs to savour, how does everyone else do it?!
I love Jules Verne. Journey to the Center of the Earth, 20000 Leagues, and Mysterious Island are my favorites. Adventure books are so fun.
I absolutely loved American Fiction too!!!
My best friend from high school wrote a biography of Sonny Rollins that came out last year!

so happy to hear this!
And thank you for the words of #10 - I received a life-changing diagnosis and needed to read it.
Sending you my good thoughts

I like that — I find new moons good times to reset, so this eclipse is like a doubly-good time!

Yes, thinking a day sitting on the deck or porch with the river going by in Blue Ridge, GA.
