Ahhh! Well, gosh. Katherine, it is incredibly kind of you to link to my piece. But - erm, I think I repaid your kindness in the worst of ways by messing up your link, because that deep water piece was originally paywalled. But it isn't any more, because I just made it public! So if anyone wants to have a read, it's here:

🙏 Thank you.

Ah well, I’m afraid I can’t fix it from here in Greece! Maybe you’ll get some subscribers :)

I absolutely did! An absolute flood of them yesterday. Thank you so much for reading my random wibbling nonsense, and also for supporting it in such a kind manner. It's so incredibly nice of you and I appreciate it a ton.

That said, I'm EXTREMELY jealous you're in Greece, and I can feel a bit of a pout coming on. But I'm reading "Enchantment" and loving it, so, I won't be able to nearly-pout for much longer. Probably.

"Ritual is a quality of attention that you bring." - I just followed your link to Instagram, and I love what you shared about ritual. It is so different from what I always thought of - the formality, strict adherence to a set of principles and actions, and words - your definition is so freeing, yet so intimate. Thanks for sharing that link. Blessings

I’m very grateful you put Maggie Smith’s Substack in my sight line a few months back, and can’t wait to read her book (the cover 🤩)

I am so delighted that you liked that Charles Bliss episode! People are very complicated - and it’s somewhat satisfying to hear a story that doesn’t neatly resolve. Thank you for acknowledging me I’m the newsletter - I was very excited to see my name there!

All this is wonderful, thank you. And Tetris! You've taken me straight back. Happy Easter. x

I still don’t dare play Tetris for fear of never starting again!
