It is finally here!!! As you can see, I started reading it already. It is a large square book with just over 500 pages. Get yours!

OKKKk now we’re COOKIN

Weekend mode on, shutting down the frequency of social media posts. Like this young woman, in late seventeenth century Europe, sealing carefully a letter she had just finished (and folded) with a wax seal. The drawing catches the moment of heating up the wax to finally seal the letter.

I’ve just finished #writing a #letter to each of my kind pen friends. Now, I’m going to post them. Time for a short #motorcycle ride!

I'm still up... I mean, I'm sitting at my desk writing a #letter with one of my #fountainpens. It's one that I've just fitted with a #Bock EF titanium nib. Later on, I'll post a photo of it... After I get some sleep.

Earlier this evening my memory took me back to my teenage years when I would listen to the BBC’s ‘Letter from America’ by Alistair Cooke on the wireless. Alistair’s voice was so distinctive it left a lasting impression on me, so much so that I still remember it decades later.

#letter : a message expressed in intelligible characters on something adapted to conveyance, as paper, parchment, etc.
