‘Season of Mists & Mellow Fruitfulness’:

A Literary Journey through Autumn

My Autumn journal, ‘Season of Mists and Mellow Fruitfulness’, is designed to help you slow down and enjoy this most poetic of seasons as it unfolds. 

I’ve included quotes from some of my favourite Romantic authors (including John Keats, Jane Austen, John Clare and the Wordsworths) and lots of playful writing prompts.

This journal is meant for YOU! Use it however best suits YOUR needs. You might create your own cosy two-week reading and writing retreat. Or, do one reading and writing prompt each week throughout Autumn. Put the kettle on and let’s get started!
