Diary Comics, Nov. 18-23
Welcome to Thursday Afternoons With Edith™! This is when Jason leaves the blog to me while he works on longer-term projects for the site. I’m thinking I’ll share some of my day-in-the-life comics here at these times, unless/until it starts to seem like a bad idea. I shared some back in November when I was guest-editing, and I’m basically picking up where those left off. I still wish I could hide most of them behind a “read more” button, though!

Yay! I love your diary comics and am glad that we will get to see more of them. Reading your comics in December really changed my perspective on what a diary can/should be. I have a shelf of old journals full of perseveration and self-analysis, but I have mostly abandoned the habit in adulthood...because that kind of writing gets exhausting. The idea of focusing on just a few moments in a day without too much commentary feels liberating!
Thanks, Caroline! And I hadn’t seen it from that angle, but I really like the way you put it — focusing on a few moments. Yes, totally.
georgia is a fashion & cold weather innovator .... also love "deep in her story" ... gonna steal that one xx

This is the name that'll be displayed next to comments you make on kottke.org; your email will not be displayed publicly. I'd encourage you to use your real name (or at least your first name and last initial) but you can also pick something that you go by when you participate in communities online. Choose something durable and reasonably unique (not "Me" or "anon"). Please don't change this often. No impersonation.
Note: I'm letting folks change their display names because the membership service that kottke.org uses collects full names and I thought some people might not want their names displayed publicly here. If it gets abused, I might disable this feature.
If you feel like this comment goes against the grain of the community guidelines or is otherwise inappropriate, please let me know and I will take a look at it.
