Comfortable Shoes Studio is the name of my little studio in Beverly, Massachusetts; here I paint large watercolors, smaller acrylics, and mostly bind books and journals. I specialize in custom bound journals and sketchbooks with adhesive-free sewing in which the sewing is visible and decorative on the spine. If you're interested please email me!

I've been reading and listening a LOT lately. I started this book 3 days ago and I have only 9 pages left. Lots of good things have been committed to memory. #lifelonglearning #stationery #coffee some back and forth on the @erasablepodcast Facebook page about old EF Blackwing pencil cap extenders, a guy did a DIY and kludged together one of his own. So I did too. These are solid, lightweight, and work like a charm. Ripped a ferrule off a blackwing, chopped a metal cap down a tad, added some gap filled gelled superglue and BOOM, cap extender with eraser.

If you are a pencil user you cannot go wrong with any of this year's composition notebooks. Fountain pen users can rejoice too. The 50 cent Unison comps at target are great! Not silky smooth but you get sheen without bleed. Hot damn some great options! Wexford at Walgreens are no slouch! Full reviews upcoming.

Many thanks! @mikaelawillmer Every now and then I wonder to myself why I podcast and blog then I get a care package and letter in the mail like this one. The pencils and stationery are cute ( the pastilles are tasty) but the letter fills my heart. #ownvoices is but one of the reasons we do this podcast but often to me it is the most important. I grew up not hearing queer women talk much and often when they did it was as the butt of the joke. And here we are on RSVP talking and doing what we do. #hereandqueer #queerAF #stationery #penaddict

For #homeroasting using the #freshroastsr500 the most important part of my notes are when I move the heat and begin to modulate the fan. I use an external timer instead of the onboard countdown on the fresh roast machine. It is more accurate. I also flick the heat off for 10 seconds at 20 sec mark and 45 sec mark. The off for 5 sec at 125, 150, 225 and finally at 250. This helps slow the heat ramp in the first 3 min of roasting and keeps the beans rotating as they lose moisture and warm up. #coffeeroasting

Oh man, I've said it before and I'll say it again #stationery friends are the best. When I posted that I'd accidentally bought 2 left tiny hands @johnnygamber offered to pick up 2 tiny right hands. Then he packed up an envelope full of goodies. Johnny is a gentleman and master swapper! Many may thanks.

Number 87 is filled. Making notes and ideas about an upcoming project and using an adapted #bulletjournal set up. And frankly realizing I was already using #bujo ideas made me happy. It's a complicated list, right? #likeaboss #stationery oh have I mentioned that I'm going to be on #penaddict talking about #compositionnotebook #pencils and being an OG blogger? No, well next week.

I've finished a few novels and u know they are terrible. They will forever languish in my reject pile. While I'm just now learning to be a writer, I'm a lifelong reader, and I can tell you a number of things that tear me out of an otherwise great story and break my heart. Some of this stuff are things beta reader and early stage editing will or should catch. Head hopping, overwhelming characters with a ton of personality and somehow we know their thoughts when the book is supposed to be first person POV, weird grammatical phrasing that sounds fine or acceptable.in a first draft but is garbage in the finished piece, repetative phrases and thoughts and words. If you are a #lesfic author and you need a honest beta reader, hit me up, I'll read your work, send you a doc with notes and thoughts, and be happy to do it. There is no reason to not have a beta reader, there are tons of readers in the community who would.be happy to do it.

I'm going to write, "Done is better than perfect." On all my notebooks from now on. It is a healthy reminder that perfectionism is just a mask for anxiety and a excuse to not get shit done. Another quip I like is, "Ass in chair, fingers on keyboard." I might make a sign for above my desk. Anyway, taking my own advice, 4 more posts ready for the blog. Gotta take photos for 2 of them. #stationery #penaddict #pocketnotebooks #RSVPstationerypodcast #gettingshitdone #pocketdump #practicalcarry

Todays #100daysofdickheads is Russell Walker. An admitted antisemite and racist who thinks God is a racist. I can't even with this #douchebag #fuckthisguy working small for now, in a @pentalicart sketchbook with much lighter washes and more pencil first. Some cool watercolor stuff happening.
