now is the winter of our discontent

quite frankly, the chunky monkey cat looks pretty content.
these dark january days are a bit like being down a well. not really, but i wanted to bring up murakami and when i think of him, i always think of spending time down a well. i'm thinking that a good way to get through this, the longest, darkest, most dreary month, would be to go on a murakami reading binge. i think i'll start with this and then dig out my murakami library.

what gets you through the darkest moments of winter's discontent?

loving that i was invited to contribute to this storystarter pinterest board.

  1. A needle in hand, that is my Winter (well all season) attraction/distraction. I have felt there is a book in you, maybe more than one. I see a series of short stories. You are creative and have an interesting vision of the world around you.

  2. murakami meet steinbeck, john meet haruki.

    winter - good if you live in a warm place and drive somewhere to play in the ice and snow.

    winter - a good time for working in studio and workshop. basically staying inside til april.

    otherwise, winter is fair justification for getting a new coat and a macro lens for that mirrorless camera.

  3. A good book. Bowls of soup. Bright Clothes, blankets, candles.

comments are the new black. so be trendy and leave one.

what is, however, not trendy, is if your comment contains an ad or a link to a spam website. those, like white shoes after labor day, will be deleted.
