John Berger feels salient right now.

“…pure hope resides first and mysteriously in the capacity to name the intolerable as such: and this capacity comes from afar-from the past and from the future. This is why politics and courage are inevitable.”

I felt both heartbroken and heartened seeing this mini food pantry while we trick or treated (that’s her on the left, purple spacesuit)

It’s so weird being a heritage speaker of a language. I have very high comprehension, but I’m B2 (intermediate) in terms of speaking and whatever level “the Little Prince” is in reading. 🫠 So difficult to explain.

Thrilled to be through to the next round! And a little scared. 1000 words in 48 hours is pretty unnatural for me. Hopefully the genre roulette is kind.

I always chuckle at this idea sitting in my concept spreadsheet, no traction yet, unsurprisingly

I’m calling it done! A heavy subject, one I hope I did justice. Proud of my effort, regardless of the outcome.
