Thanks very much

  1. My little nieces, R and Z. It’s wonderful to watch how they grow and develop from week to week. R’s ability to talk never ceases to amaze me. Z is trying to figure out how to walk, and it’s funny and breathtaking at the same time.
  2. iPhone games.
  3. Fountain pens. I like their aesthetic, but I also like how when I use them to write I have to slow down. This is very good for the thinking process. And it’s good to slow down from time to time.
  4. Scandinavian authors. Henning Mankell, Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö, Marianne Fredriksson and Arnaldur Indriðason. Now I really, really want to go north.
  5. Things falling into place.
