So I know someone in Australia–a place I’ve always wanted to visit. Very cool. And huge congrats on graduating!

Thank you, w!

Kirie, I can just see us sitting at a table with coffee or wine… and wow, thank you for even thinking of reading all the posts as a whole. I wish I could get them bound into a journal of sorts. I may look into that. And thanks for mentioning the photos. About three-quarters of the way through, I wished I had only used my photos, rather than pulling some of those silly ones from the internet. Anyway, I read dovegreyscribbles years ago and checked her out again recently. I will check out Louise DaSalvo too. Thank you thank you for all your support this year xo

I found Catching Days via the ’12 Keys to Stronger Writing/Annie Dillard’ post via a mention somewhere I can’t recall now! At the time I was a Uni student studying towards a BA from which I thankfully graduated last year. So the link may have been connected with creative non-fiction which was one of my units. I live in Queensland, Australia at the moment but still consider Adelaide my Australian “home” as I’m originally from the UK!

Thank you so so much, Ann, for playing along. And for showing yourself : ) When I started writing these posts, immediately I saw that it wouldn’t necessarily be clear from each post what the one true thing was for that day. Not that it was important, except that that’s how I thought of the project–one true thing, each day, for 365 days. So I just wondered if anyone ever read a post and wondered what I’d chosen. I love essence–thank you for that. And I love the childhood posts too… And that “nobody” post–that was a moment. I used to love stationery too–in fact I still have a whole basket I can’t part with but I hardly ever use it these days. Where are you from? How did you find Catching Days?

Thanks, Anne. I did want the last few posts to take the entire project into consideration and not just be another post in the series. Endings are so important, aren’t they?

Dorothy, thanks for your kind words here and for your support throughout the year. I am happy to be nearing the end, but I will miss the steady conversation. Happy New Year to you!
