I am reading The Pillow Book by Sei Shonagon. It is
a record of court life 1000 years ago, written by a
court lady of the imperial Palace in Japan.
It is interesting in itself, but I am using the
prompts in a section of the book. Such prompts
as pleasing things and things of which people are
rarely aware. There is also a glossary of Japanese
terms at the back of the book.
Something that would please me would be if the
muse would come back from wherever she is
hiding, so I could get some writing done. I did
manage to do a book review and puzzle for the
senior magazine. Will send that out shortly.
Have been zooming around ezboard and all its
tributaries. I can hardly get away once I start reading
there.
