Morning.

I have recently been reading into Virginia Woolf’s A Writer’s Diary. She too wrote not daily but periodically.

There is a pointed simplicity to her writing. I recall her description of a summer afternoon. Imagine a room full of dinner guests, she writes. One turns to look over their shoulder and remarks, ‘what a fine afternoon’. The power of suggestion does the rest.

One hopes to write in a similar manner. You write en simple and suggestion does the rest. Now, summer, methinks, has ended. Writing, on the contrary, has not.

New business. At last there will be an opportunity to write regarding ‘Continental Travel’ as the heading to this blog suggests. In the coming months we are planning and travelling to Europe–Hungary, in fact.

With posts between now and then, later travel posts will be brimming with photos and descriptions. I’m sure you’re just as excited as me.

In the meanwhile, continue to coffee, to read and to dream. Goodness knows I do. I even pulled out the fountain pen the other day and begun scratching about on paper. Fall is the season for that: reflection.

Here’s to changing seasons, travel planning and, of course, good coffee.
