I agree with Sister Julian and I’d love to see some of your drawings!

I’m knitting on a sweater that has been in hibernation for at least two years while listening to _Dark Fire_ by C.J. Sansom.   It’s the second in a mystery series that started with _Dissolution_ which took place in an English Benedictine monastery in the days of Henry VIII.

Sounds like a good time to practice pencil drawing with audible reading in the background. I am off to do just that.
