After many days of the soundest, deepest sleep, I found myself awake at 3:00AM, ready for it to be an appropriate time so that I could start my day. It is during these strange body clock blips that I find it is best to take to blogging. Also, I feel that sleep can be such an idle thing lately, especially when there is so much art to do and so many books to read.
Last night, after a full day of unfiltered creative bliss, I finished my Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell audiobook and loved it so much, I thought I might want to listen to it again the following week. But, how can I justify such a thing when there are so many audiobooks to listen to?? Susanna Clarke is now a favorite author, but I get the feeling through her characters that she does not favor cats, which is unfortunate.
Here are only a scant few of the many projects I've been working on. A bracelet from the Nomad collection, consisting of beads that have been traded, traveled and adored (thank you Mary from Maine for giving me a new love for African trade beads), Benzini the Great rings and a painting-without-a-name that is still a work in progress.
I recieved a large shipment of beads from FMG and loads of vintage beads and baubles from Etsy. Perhaps that is why I can't sleep; because I know they are in my studio and they want to "be" something. I finished the first Gunslinger book and decided not to move on with the series for now, but I am reading Water for Elephants and find there are moments when I would rather starve than put it down.
It is slowly creeping on spring and I am sure I'll have lots of fun stories for you because spring tends to be so magical.
