Ahh, the knotted, gnarly, tangle of hawthorn scrub. Is what your description of your email inbox had me thinking of. I feel SEEN !!!! I cracked my Macmail work inbox last year; my gmail still looms dark like the nigh impassable forest surrounding Sleeping Beauty’s castle.

I have been thinking a lot recently about needing to hold onto the ‘magical’ bit, which I usually refer to as wandering and wondering, as well as the ‘practical’ stuff. The neurodivergent parts of me need the practical, but also end up focusing on that to the detriment of the magic and wonder.

I have your book on the ‘to read very soon’ pile next to me. Often I find the more I want to read a book the harder I find it to start reading, which is what is happening with your book (and several others)! Sorry - I can’t explain it, but the right moment will come, I know.
