On my way to Salisbury. Long train rides are perfect for moments of reflection. My sabbatical of this past year has changed me in ways I couldn't have predicted. Feeling refreshed and ready for change after a few hours of jotting down thoughts in my diary.

Kind of guilt-tripped over this drawing because I willed a bumble bee to sit still for a few seconds so I could draw it better, then it...fell dead from its flower. I eh...sorry, little fella 😢❤️‍🩹

Sun's out! That means it's time to write Particularly Dark Scenes!

I experimented and made fried garlic in the microwave in all of five minutes.

Safe to say this is going to be the greatest lifehack of all time.

There apparently exists a plant called Hobbit Jade, and I'm now on my way to acquire one despite being a notorious plantkiller.

Studying garlic was so much fun that I now wonder why I never majored in garlic. The economic sciences taste like ash in my mouth now. Give me allium sciences. (2B pencil on textured paper.)

Just a gentle reminder that sometimes, the most wondrous and fantastical of worlds is the one we already live in. (These are white-spotted jellyfish.)

I cannot quite express how beautiful this place is - and how much my worldbuilding sensors are going into OVERDRIVE.
