Smell of blackberries and grass. Every one of them and all of them. Once upon a time… but, really, when I … [Read more…]
I’m very bad at blogging lately. It’s like at least one of us is sick, and then camera refuses to cooperate, and then there is a new game or book, TV series or movie to watch, real life shows fangs and demands attention. So I disappear from the blog for weeks, then I come … [Read more…]
