“The Writing Life,” Anne Dillard: Read this and tell me if you think it’s funny. “Write as if you were dying. At the same time, assume you write for an audience consisting solely of terminal patients. That is, after all, the case. What would you begin writing if you knew you would die soon? What could you say to a dying person that would not enrage by its triviality?” If you just burst out laughing, you may be a writer. This book is full of gems like that, and I laughed out loud in the way one might while driving off a cliff. You know, in the good way? #bookstagram #annedillard #writing #reading #literature #bookshelf #bookworm https://www.instagram.com/p/B0w3gNZhRg9/?igshid=k6p1fuhdqodf

Day 98/100: The Part Alternation Mark. This Japanese #punctuationmark is used to indicate the beginning of a song, or the beginning of the next player's part. It was most common in Noh chanting books and Renga (linked verse). In Noh books it is used to mark the beginning of each character's (or the chorus') parts. I think this #symbol is really unusual & interesting & couldn't resist the similarity with mountain peaks! 🏞 [Wool arranged over an image of Scottish mountains on the approach to Glencoe] #100daysofthepunctuationproject #the100dayproject #100days #gm100dayproject #punctuation #thepunctuationproject #punctuationmarks #punctuationdesign #punctuationsymbols #punctuationlibrary #japan #japanese #japanesepunctuation #japaneselanguage #japanesesymbol #partalternationmark #partalternation #music #musicalsymbols #chorus #renga #linkedverse #verse #nohchanting #song #mountains #mountainpeaks #scottishmountains #scotland #glencoe #wool #ballofwool #creativerepresentation #creativeplay #creativehabit #dailyhabit #elleluna #annedillard

You can't test courage cautiously #AnneDillard ✨ Last day of #MarchHeadstandManiacs and we get to pick any pose we like, so I went with one I've never done - Elbow Headstand and I'm super stoked I was able to pull it off. Sweet success! Yay :) ✌️✌️

Day 79/100: The Ohm symbol (derived from the Greek 'omega'). The ohm (symbol: Ω) is the SI derived unit of electrical resistance, named after German physicist Georg Simon Ohm. The symbol Ω was suggested, because of the similar sound of ohm and omega, by William Henry Preece in 1867. The ohm is defined as an electrical resistance between two points of a conductor when a constant potential difference of 1 volt, applied to these points, produces in the conductor a current of 1 ampere, the conductor not being the seat of any electromotive force.

Day 74/100: The Equals Symbol (=). 'Cos flowers = summer! The equals sign or equality sign (=) is a mathematical symbol used to indicate equality. It was invented in 1557 by Robert Recorde. In an equation, the equals sign is placed between two (or more) expressions that have the same value. The etymology of the word "equal" is from the Latin word "æqualis" as meaning "uniform", "identical", or "equal", from aequus ("level", "even", or "just").

Day 71/100: Macron Pattern Repeat. Taking my #geometric experiments a little further today, I thought the #macron #diacriticalmark I featured yesterday as a paper-cut-out lent itself perfectly to a #repeatingpattern - and I quite like it! I kept a similar #colourpalette & think it might work well as a simple scarf design or for stationery? The #twotone in the blue is rocking it for me too - thoughts? #patterndesign #patterndesigner #surfacepatterndesign #macronpattern #the100dayproject #100daysofthepunctuationproject #creativehabit #dailyhabit #elleluna #annedillard #100days #lines #geometry #symbols #punctuationsymbols #punctuationdesign #punctuationlibrary #mauve #lilac #blue #crosses #patternobserver #papercutouts #patternexperiments
