Maybe shes tethered to a pontoon, lacks key safety gear for actual sailing, and has a leak or two—but that doesn’t mean I won’t enjoy my last two weeks with her!

Yes. The answer is yes. You can and should pair cheese cake with neck oil.

Sitting with HRH in my boat studio just about to start sketching some ideas for illustrating a tarot deck. Feeling a little like I’ve won at life.

Ship’s Cat. They are a rank of their own and follow neither skipper nor crew. But I could have told you that.

Visited my old friends at the museum, held a 5000 year old axe, met an actual orrery—going to miss London.

An increasingly tight budget means I can only get essential things. Like books on ancient magic and resistance.

If you ask me about a happy place I’ll think of a laundromat in Lower Sydenham.

After an initial set back yesterday, got her into the water today. I am exhausted and thrilled. I feel like I just won a game of cards.

Today my boat goes back into the water! This is the big test to see if my work this summer was any good. If she floats, I head to my mooring, if she sinks, I’ll cry and start over!

The soft animal of my body loves paper. She also loves organized art supplies.

New ink for equinox.#DaggersDown is the mantra. Entering this new season with the idea that maybe I don’t always have to fight my way through it. Maybe I can slow down. Maybe I can put down the dagger. Maybe. There’s a lifetime of vigilance to ease up on.

Should I be nervous or flattered that I have a copycat on TikTok?

Trip to Sicily has made it clear:

1: I don’t know how to eat.
2: google has not actually mapped the whole world.
3: I need to spend more time in Italy.

My heart is too stone cold for an Italian lover, but I can appreciate the appeal.

Translation: “you have changed the architecture and the proportions of my heart”
