Balancing my writing process, a mnml digest
Five links. Ten sentences or fewer. On the two faces of my writing process: sharing in-process writing and keeping a healthy headspace.

A currently inked that is currently sharing
I inked this week’s septet with my local pen group’s meetup in mind. The intention is to have a spectrum of nib grinds, pen materials, and inks to share. So folks can experiment with new-to-them combinations of pen and nib and ink.

Changing journals and changing headings for change’s sake
No plan survives a week entirely intact. The first two weeks of summer break strayed widely from my original plan of reading and commonplacing. Yet, there’s a strong silver lining. Summer months offer me the time and freedom to follow projects as they capture my attention.
And put them into new journals.

Walk quietly, carry moody blue pens
I get another week at home to work on projects that I find personally valuable. Reading and recording commonplace notes: yep. Journaling my way through the ongoing history-making government hearings: yes. Researching water parameters and a list of plants for a new freshwater fishtank: you betcha.
