Do you keep a journal? I can’t imagine being without mine. I think I’ve always been a scribbler. I remember loving stationery when I was little and having plenty of notebooks and pretty pens to keep me busy. I loved writing stories, I went through phases of keeping a diary and I liked lists. Of …

Welcome to this month’s Bring Back Paper activity, a book swap. I love the book swap, because books are absolutely magical. Books are a place to lose yourself, to travel to somewhere new and to walk in someone else’s shoes for a short while. A book swap is a fun way to read something new, …
