I have enjoyed making my little books so much. Maybe I will make more. I will most likely have some extra, so if you would like to have one, let me know! I mostly live inside a fantasy in my head. A prolonged delulu state that’s so much fun, with no rules, jumping from one century to the other, dreaming of a pure state of intellectual and spiritual bliss. It’s an escape. I received so many gifts, some material, many inmaterial, some that I bought myself. Thank you for the gifts! Happy Sunday. I’m 50 today. I really don’t understand it; inside, I’m still 14. It’s raining and quiet, and I can read in bed and I have flowers. I bought the peonies myself, but also found a surprise on the dinning table this morning. I know I will regret posting and be embarrassed by this post in a couple of days, but I’m making an effort. I have mostly retired from society, but I’m grateful to know all my family, friends and acquaintances. Have a beautiful day ❤️❤️ A great mail day 😀🥹 Glorious June has arrived. A story I wrote two years ago after my diagnosis of BPD has been published in the literary magazine Blank Spaces (@blankspacesmag). Spring is here. My muses keep me alive. What would I do without them? “Could art, should art, be isolated from life? I began to feel more and more strongly that art must be life—it must belong to everybody. I felt, more powerfully than ever, that what I had created had a purpose.” #bookreviews #books #writing 💙
