Morning writing view. Cozy by the fire as my youngest clears the deck outside the window.
It’s 10 am & dawn is just breaking in the Yukon. We don’t do daylight savings time here anymore, so a later dawn but also a later dusk.

If you have a local indie, ordering from them might not get a discount, but it will win you a cosmic cheer from all of us who want to see those bookstores stay in business.
