annotating six of crows and the funniest part of annotating the ice court heist is just trying to keep track of where tf kaz went in each scene lmao

Probably my favorite pastime: annotating books.

Therapy is expensive, daydreaming about fictional characters is not.

recent reads + annotations! a well-loved book will inevitably have scribbles and sticky notes and dog-eared pages!

the artist’s way, week one

a book for the people that are “creative in spasms. creative as an act of will and ego. creative, yes, but in spurts like blood forma a severed artery”

the basics: 1. write three morning pages everyday (stream of consciousness, to free your brain space and be able to focus on what you care most), 2. take yourself out in an artist date every weekend (to reward and inspire you)

pay attention to the changes in yourself and the synchronicities, note the negative feelings that rise up; non-attachment to the result of your art, rather learn to live in the process

reminder: we need to stop demanding that we look good, it is impossible to get better and look good at the same time

I adore messy annotations.

A page suffocated by scrawls, scribbles, lines, arrows, circles, highlights, all near illegible. As though the reader couldn’t contain those thoughts. They were overpowered by emotions and ideas. A ruler-less underline because you read that quote and the pen couldn’t be in your hand any quicker. Scribbled sentences that require the book to be turned upside down or on its side to be read again. Exclamation marks, because you’re at loss for words and the author said it best. Books of mine start with ruled lines and perfect hand writing, but by the end are sometimes too messy to be reread. I find messy annotations the most beautiful, the most intimate.
