The List Isn’t Getting Shorter
The complexities of life never stop and I think they call it adulting.
This is my part of my list - a blog for a movie review and a university assignment, a full read-through of a novel, an email I owe an artist for our book cover, a trilogy that refuses to start at the beginning, a small person learning what feelings are, and a day job. This post is me walking the length of that list, mostly so I can see it all in one place
Sawdust, Storylines, and a New Table
From piles of rubbish, remarkable things can be created. Entire worlds are imagined. Stories are written. Characters live and breathe in places that began as nothing more than scattered ideas and discarded fragments.
Over the past month I’ve been doing something similar on a much smaller scale.
A stack of weathered old decking boards full of screw holes and years of use, has slowly been turned into the desk where those worlds and stories will be written. Piece by piece the timber was cut down, layered, glued, and shaped into something new.
This post is a small look at that process: how a pile of old boards became the table where the next stories will begin.
