Sunday Reads: November 24. 2019

I am trying to manage my time a little better as I am juggling quite a few things - I know, we're all juggling things every day of our lives. I'm not unique in this, but I am not juggling very well. As such, I am going to change up the format of my Sunday Reads a little. I usually share links I enjoyed in the recent past and I will continue to do that. I share things I have posted this week, in case you missed anything. I share upcoming workshops at Toronto Pen Company, especially if we're heading to a pen show. Overall, I think I will reduce the links and only share my favourites and I will add some thoughts, like this one, when applicable. I hope you enjoy Sunday Reads. I started this years ago and I've received feedback that some of you out there enjoy it, so I don't want to take it away. Thank you for your love, support, and readership. I am grateful to have you all with me.
