[8/100] days of productivity
worked on some articles for my Substack, made a lot of progress with Babysitter by Joyce Carol Oates (this book is...devastating and kinda traumatic), did house chores, and went for a walk.
I've never been somewhere I belonged, but there are places where I think I could be happy. Like San Francisco. Well, do art museums count? Because I feel like I belong in them.

Did a lot of reading. I'm almost finished with Babysitter by Joyce Carol Oates. Such a "traumatic" read, so dark and uncomfortable, but beautifully written. Worked on my Substack. Then went for a little walk at the park.

Slowly but surely, I'm making an analogical version of my Storygraph. A journal dedicated to tbr lists, monthly wrap-ups, favorite books of the year, etc.

Made some notes about this article on the Romantic movement and Friedrich's paintings.
Such a nice read!
I'm really enjoying this new commonplace practice, and keeping you posted about it.
