Dear Fery,

Thank you for your lovely message and congratulations on the new life that has joined yours. What a wonderful time in your lives! I feel like I just read a letter from a friend.

I have the book, "Braiding Sweetgrass", but I have avoided reading it for now. I tried to stay away from books with similar thought sharing to mine as I work on my book. I so love reading and learning from other people, but while I write, I want what comes to me to be carried in on raven's wings and wind-song, not other people's words. I look forward to reading it in the future.

I do not know what Quorum Sensing is. No, I don't listen to audio books much, but now that my library lets me, I might just start. My crafty meditation is rug hooking. I'm working on a night sky right now, often after dinner by the fire. Sometimes I like silence. Sometimes I like classical music. Maybe I will try an audio book here and there.

Yes, the screen does constrain. I have been working on a book. I like paper. I like pencils. I usually write my essays on paper first and then put them on a screen. I get sucked into screens like everyone else, but I've gotten better at managing that time. I use the method in "Deep Work" to schedule my days. So, screen time is scheduled. It keeps me on task and much happier. Big hugs to you and your family.
