Creative Gleanings No. 001
Five things from my creative life this March
To glean means to gather slowly, selectively what remains after the main harvest.
Creative Gleanings is my monthly handful of those things: read, watched, used and perhaps some tools, sounds and ideas that have made their way into my creative life.
I hope something here finds its way into yours too.
Ooh how I love reading other people’s recommendations! I guess that’s my curious nature or just plain nosiness so with this new monthly article I share my recommendations so you can be nosy too.
These candles have a burn time of about 40mins which is perfect to accompany me while I’m writing also…they’re really pretty and the melted wax magically disappears so there is no mess.
I planned to read this short novel Three Days in June over 3 days in June like the title suggests. It may have taken me longer than 3 days to read but it was joyful and just perfect. I’ve entered my short novel area and I’m glad I didn't wait until June!
I love drinking this Echinacea hot drink with a teaspoon of honey when I have a cold and sometimes even when I don’t.
I bought this drawing calendar at the start of the year and I love using my pastels to draw on it every month for the next month. Their sketchbooks are also amazing.
I’ve felt wobbly in my ability to write early this month perhaps I was the victim of a mini writer’s block? but this article The liar in your head helped me push through.
See you next month,
Océane xoxo
