Beyond the Fields We Know: Sequestered, Week 310 (CCCX)

Happy September!

Autumn Reading

Autumn is a comfortable chair indoors with a reading lamp and a mug of tea nearby. I like being outside near the garden best, but I can't do that on rainy days, and there are quite a few at this time of the year.

Autumn reading is less fluffy than summer's, more history, archeology and science. The fondness for magical realism, quirky whodunnits and Belle Époque fantasy lingers, and I enjoy a good mystery, particularly when it is set in a faraway place. And cookbooks...

As in summer, reading choices often seem to make themselves, surfacing in my local library, book store bargain bins, village thrift shops, yard sales and the little free libraries that have sprung up everywhere.

Thanks again to the Muses for the kindred spirits who turn up at the door, hand me a bag of reading and ask hopefully if there is any tea in the pot. (There usually is).

Wise Words

When we deliberately leave the safety of the shore of our lives, we surrender to a mystery beyond our intent.
Ann Linnea

The camera points both ways. In expressing the subject you also express yourself.
Freeman Petterson

We live in a world of light.
Henry Plummer

The world is full of stories, not of atoms.

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
