The pen I’m using today is my Kaweco Art Sport (Blueblack limited edition). It’s the only pen for which I’m using cartridges and it’s currently inked with Kaweco Midnight Blue. I love how it looks without the clip, so I never use it. (The body is dark blue, but not as dark as it appears on the picture. It’s difficult to get a good lighting…)#FountainPen #CurrentlyInked

#ReadingUpdate #LanguageLearning🚪 I have been busy this week so I haven’t read much, but my biggest achievement is without a doubt reaching 70% on 請把門鎖好 by 既晴 (Jì Qíng).
📦 I just started the second Korean short story for this week, 비어있는 상자 by 이승훈 (Lee Seunghun), so finishing it will be my main goal this weekend.
🚃 I’m still in the middle of 寝台特急殺人事件 by Kyotaro Nishimura (西村京太郎). I haven’t had much time to read it this week, but it is one of the most engrossing novels I have read lately.

🛋️ Put a small shelf near the table I’m using most of the time (it’s just the table from the living room) to put the plants on it, and I can also store my keyboard and notebooks/pens etc to make room on the table that gets always so crowded with my stationery and books.
👩🏻💻 Found a way (by asking my husband) to resize featured images on my blog.
🛏️ Couldn’t sleep last night and spent hours reading the Taiwanese book I want to finish this year. Made really good progress!

Hi. I was wondering what you’re set up for reading is in terms of posture and comfort?? If you have aches and whatnot, you should definitely change things up. I have a book holder that I use for books and my kindles. It’s very convenient since I don’t have to hold stuff to read and I don’t have to look down at a table. I alternate between sitting and standing for reading. I also use a music stand ( i change the angle so it’s like a table) to place my book holder for reading while standing
Thankfully, I don’t have any back pain or aches that would make it difficult to hold my books. I alternate between sitting and standing too. I also alternate between sitting at my desk (looking down) and sitting back in my chair (holding my book). I guess it’s okay because Japanese books are light.
The music stand to place your book holder is a good idea! Sometimes I rest my arms on my cat’s cat tree while standing!
