The last six weeks, a list: Travelled my body from Ireland to Scotland to south west UK and then back to Scotland, consequently tired but the main objective of moving house was achieved and will eventually be less tired I’m sure Turned into a creature that mainly all day every day paints over the alarming wall paint colours chosen by the previous occupant of this apartment—the ceilings are too high to be reasonable
Congratulations! I am looking forward to when summer is fully fledged and I can get Everything, Beautiful from my local bookshop. I will likely also gather the courage to ask a librarian to preorder it so they can hold a copy on their shelves. I wish you the best as you deal with those ridiculously high walls (my home also has unfortunate paint colors, so I can commiserate with the struggle of making the walls friendlier) and the confusion of people <3.
I also wanted to let you know that I am striking out on the adventure of making a book, of really being a professional artist, and you and your work have made me more brave about the entire ordeal. I have a few more weeks until I graduate, then it is frighteningly blank pages and the bold earnestness that is required of trying.
I love the idea of a summer becoming 'fully fledged'—that is such a good and interesting thought. Also there is certainly an understanding between people who live with and intensely notice the unfortunate paint colours!

This also is the best kind of also! I am so happy about this, and for you, and for the openness of not-knowing so many things that will come.
