Winter Comfort; LOML

plus a call for submissions

This iPhone photo collection is the truest representation of my past two months. January and February are dull. The days are short but hours feel eternal. I’ve spent so much time in my house and I am so sick of interior spaces. Fala invites me to be still when I get stir crazy. With her beside me, I read a novel, bake a fruit tart, stay up late with my best friend, listen to Stick Season (Forever) on repeat.

call for submissions! inspired by HAD

My favorite thing on the internet last week was this thread from a lit mag I follow, born out of a piece titled “50 Words For Nostalgia.” A bunch of writers in the thread shared their own 50 words for nostalgia, and now I’m asking for yours.

Send me your “50 Words for Nostalgia” by 12:00 pm ET on Monday, March 4. With your submission, let me know if you’d like to remain anonymous. I’ll publish the collection in Tuesday’s LR.
