Pleasures

• Thoughtful gifts. I think a gift is something where people express how much and how well they know you. This past birthday my friends got me a few Murano glass pieces (I collect, especially Murano candies) and an early copy of Delta of Venus by Anaïs Nin. When I reached a particular word count in my new novel, my friend got me a pair of opera glasses in brass and mother of pearl.
