I read My Cousin Rachel in anticipation of the movie released this summer and now I cannot wait to watch it! Originally published in 1951, this is a period piece that felt like a gothic masterpiece. Philip Ashley was raised by his Uncle Ambrose on the family estate in Cornwall. The sound of the sea features... Continue Reading →
The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron
Can you believe that I've been referencing The Artist's Way for over six months and hadn't even read it?!

Three Card Draw – July 29, 2017
I don't think I've ever written about my tarot habit before.

I'll spend some time writing about my tarot philosophy soon,... Continue Reading →
