Not a big ask…

I want a garden, a small house, grass, animals, books, pictures, music. And out of this, the expression of this, I want to be writing […] But warm, eager, living life—to be rooted in life—to learn, to desire to know, to feel, to think, to act. That is what I want. And nothing less.

~ Katherine Mansfield, (1888-1923) in a diary entry featured in Letters and Journals of Katherine Mansfield

  1. I’d like to be “writing from that” too. I want just a little less, apparently, because I nodded at “grass animals,” not having spotted the disappointing comma at first (grass animals would last longer than regular ones)!
