(I don’t think she saw.) “I do various things,” I said. “I write fiction, I make textile art, I teach.” All quite true: I do. What I didn’t mention was […] I’ve had a quite extraordinary year. It feels like I started sprinting in mid-February, and didn’t stop until … well, probably until my grandmother died at the end of September.
