i absolutely adored the ten thousands doors of january and the unmaking of june farrow, our tastes are so alike! please keep talking about the books your reading i love it!
So proud of you on the Uppercase Magazine feature! Congratulations, Erin! 🥰🙌🎨 Always love your video and whatever you have to share. You don't talk or share too much, you do it just right! It's all so inspiring and always gives me lots of ideas 💖
Thank you so much! I'm very excited about it. And thanks for the kind words. I love to listen to other people talk about stationery--I don't know why I'm self-conscious about it, but I'll try to get over that. :)
i apologize for all the comments, i should've just compiled them and waited till the end to send but I did want to mention that I use a similar method to track my media! instead of picking one dot per piece of media I have a dot per media category and then list whatever I read or watched in any given day. but I love the idea of choosing a dot per book!
No worries, just keep 'em coming! 😆 I think I saw that recently in your media journal. I like that idea too. Lately I've just been writing in other types of things because I don't watch too many things other than TH-cam.
I got excited seeing your video, and I spent a lovely time with you today, and now I need to go back and leave a comment. (I hate commenting from my phone or iPad. Blech.)
Maybe, and yes, but I'm also trying to get away at looking at time as transactional, or like it needs to be maximized, so I think I was thinking more like intentional or focused. Or maybe present is better. (Still thinking. 😊)
Absolutely loved this video!!! I love seeing all your books (I always say this lol) and I love hearing about your book recs!! I went to add the unmaking of June farrow to my cart and did you know there is another book by the same author called spells for forgetting? It also sounds wonderful!
i think the word that comes up for me is intentional? its not so much about being productive or useful as much as it is about making sure we're doing things with intention instead of just going through the motions, making sure we're always busy.... that's a goal for me this year, for sure. even in a busier season for me, i'm still trying to focus on being as intentional as I can with what I spend my time on and the mentality with which i approach those tasks. not sure if that resonates but figured id share :)
I feel like the phrase you want is fulfilling. I want the things that I am busy doing to leave me with a sense of fulfillment. So even when its boring- like cleaning- atleast it fills my heart to know im making a lovely space for my family. Or when I spend time on social media it fills up a need for connection rather than distraction. Or books that add to my experience of life, that gives depth to my relationships to others and inspires me, rather that books that are just mindless entertainment. Its kind of like empty calories vrs nourishment? Anyways. I shall continue watching your lovely video now ✨
Oh yes. That's from Niconeco. It looks like it sold out, but there might be some others from the same colab. www.niconeco.com/products/niconeco-zakkaya-x-hiraoka-hitomi-collabration-rubber-stamp-coffee-time?_pos=7&_sid=0f8e3244a&_ss=r And thanks for the kind words!
Yeah, those are good words. I think focused is what I was trying to get at, but those are synonyms, so there you go. :) Definitely all three of those. The sticker book I purchased is: amzn.to/3veohek

"my art pours out of my life in a way that can't be separate from it" KICKED THE WIND OUT OF MY LUNGS. the truest of truths !!

New Erin video yay !!!!!!! Haven't finished it yet but wanted to jump in and say the excitement was real when I saw this video on my homepage
I got excited seeing your video, and I spent a lovely time with you today, and now I need to go back and leave a comment. (I hate commenting from my phone or iPad. Blech.)
Love your videos Erin, so inspiring. Plus, you are so jolly to listen to. Thanks.
Oh, thank you. That's so nice to hear. I like sharing these things, so I love that they're appreciated. ❤️
I think the word you're looking for is efficiency ^^ "We want to use our time more efficiently"
Maybe, and yes, but I'm also trying to get away at looking at time as transactional, or like it needs to be maximized, so I think I was thinking more like intentional or focused. Or maybe present is better. (Still thinking. 😊)
Maybe effective is the word you're looking for! Not necessarily the time you get the most done, but when you do important or thoughtful work
Uppercase! I live in Calgary and love that this magazine is so revered by artists.
It is lovely. :)
TWSBI Eco for me, loved that I’m able to see the inks of my fountain pen 🖋️
I like that too--and they hold so much ink!

Yay, thank you! I've haven't read that one but I've seen it. June was so good. I highly recommend it!

That's exactly it. I think intentional is a great word for it. I want to be present.

Yes, this. We're always on the same page. :)
I saw a stamp in your box of a little creature sitting at a table. Where is it from? Great video, by the way.
Oh yes. That's from Niconeco. It looks like it sold out, but there might be some others from the same colab. www.niconeco.com/products/niconeco-zakkaya-x-hiraoka-hitomi-collabration-rubber-stamp-coffee-time?_pos=7&_sid=0f8e3244a&_ss=r And thanks for the kind words!
Maybe the word you want is thoughtfully or intentionally?
Which sticker book did you get from Amazon?
Yeah, those are good words. I think focused is what I was trying to get at, but those are synonyms, so there you go. :) Definitely all three of those. The sticker book I purchased is: amzn.to/3veohek
