Yearnings

For my part I sense a yearning—deep, unschooled—to return to the full-length nonfiction form. As a reader, certainly. As a writer, perhaps.

It's so true, sometimes as a reader I feel a deep yearning for certain kinds of books. It's an important thing to be aware of since I talk about books on a schedule on my blog.
"We learn a lot about ourselves, I think, when we consider which books we're willing to part with." Ohh, I love that thought. I have two bookshelves that contain books that I will never part with. One of them is full of books that I would probably cry over if they were damaged or lost.
That's an interesting yearning, Beth. I wonder where it'll take you.
Jumping to new subject: do you spin? I have an Ashford Traditional wheel -- I used to spin, but I'd rather be knitting and leave the spinning to someone else. Hum, just had a thought: Is this like letting someone else do the writing so I can do the editing? Lost in tangents this cool Tuesday morning.
