Un día descubrirás el valor de tener a alguien que elige venir cuando lo llamas.

"Monoliths of books and manuscripts rose around him. All were crammed with words, words packed as solidly as bricks in a wall, armies of them marching endlessly on from one page to the next without pause. He forced the pen in his tight grip a hairsbreadth closer to the paper so that the word stubbornly clinging to it might finally yield, flow onto the vast emptiness. Point and paper met. Kissed. Froze.

"He sat back, breath spilling abruptly out of him, the pen laden with unformed words dangling now over the floor in his lax fingers. How, he wondered incredulously, did all those books and papers come into existence? In what faceted jewel of amber secreted in what invisible compartment of what hidden casket did others find that one word to begin the sentence that layered itself into a paragraph, that built itself into a page, that went on to the next page, and on, and on?"

Last week, I had a Free Book credit from Thriftbooks, something to do with point adjustments, but, I mean, a free book?? I jumped on that. Lol. I ordered a book & a DVD, and they arrived today! I ended up picking out The Fair Folk, a collection of short stories about the Fae, edited by Marvin Kaye. It features a short story from the author of my all-time favorite book (The Forgotten Beasts of Eld), Patricia A. McKillip. (Which I'll admit was the initial draw for me, lol) However, I also couldn't resist picking up Taylor Swift's Journey To Fearless DVD b/c it was $5 (the book was also $5) and it's been on my Taylor Swift list for a while. Lol. So this has been a mini Thriftbooks haul!

I went a bit nuts with Patricia A. McKillip's books. They're just so perfectly old school comfort fantasy & that's just hitting the spot for me lately. Any favorites? * #funaekreads #funaekbooks #instabooks #instareads #fantasybooks #fantasyreads #patriciaamckillip https://www.instagram.com/p/CIWKuQEArkN/?igshid=t0ltxfc5mddv

As an author, I'm inspired by both visual stimuli and lush prose. So when one of my favorite #faerie #artists makes a book with one of my favorite #fantasy #authors, it's not an impulse buy. It's a *give my muse new life* buy. ;) I'm loving this #magical story and the #beautiful #artwork! ••• #bookstagram #prettybooks #coverlove #reads #fairytale #patriciaamckillip #authorlove #booklove #bookstagram #writerslife #inspiration #bookworm #beautifulbooks #fantasy #booklovers #bibliophile #bookaddict #bookgram #booktography #instabooks #brianfroud #art #bookish #artist #somethingrichandstrange

~ so, how do we all feel about tabbing / underlining books? ~ It’s not something i do often, but when i come across some beautiful writing, or a passage i can really relate to or inspires me, i try to tab it. I think i’m going to make more of an effort to copy some of my favourite quotes so i can look back on them & remember the loveliness. Hope you’re all having a wonderful weekend 😊 🌸 ____________________________________________________ #bookstagram #bookish #fantasy #fiction #bookcommunity #patriciaamckillip #booklover #bibliophile #ovid #classics #poetry #shakespeare #booknerd #bookdragon #goodreads #bookworm #instaread #igreads #booksofinstagram #poems #bookaddict #reader #love #reader #readinghabits #quotes #bookstagramfeature #karinareads https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt-XbqRHGPA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kme4iagvu17n
