Hey, friends!
Today was a busy day filled with deadlines and errands, but I found a way to commune with nature for 10 minutes anyway. I found this lovely trio crossing through the national park on my way from one end of the island to the other. The island has many species of both deciduous and coniferous trees that are home to many creatures, none of which I saw, but the air was cold and clear. There was a breeze and a few tiny snowflakes swirling around.
I breathed deep, snuggled deeper into my coat, and felt some peace.

Bind All Your Little Journals Into One
If you are intending to make a little bound book at the end of the 31 days, you’ll want to first make a collection of folded books. Instructions here:
Support
Cricklewood is a space where we can learn from nature and each other as we rewild. Because nature journaling is so beneficial to our well-being, I make almost all of the content available to all subscribers.
To be completely blunt, however, Cricklewood cannot exist without the support of its readers. This publication provides one of my income streams in a year with paid subscriptions funding all content creation and activities that happen here.
If you find this content interesting, valuable, and want to support this project, please consider becoming a paid subscriber.
Are you getting a group of nature journalers together?
I’m so pleased to offer group subscriptions! Gather 5 or more in your group and take advantage of 15% off each seat in an annual subscription now and for the entire time your group chooses to stay paid subscribers.
Other ways to support my work
If a paid subscription isn’t for you, consider hiring me for illustration or purchase original art.
Or if you’d rather support my work through general patronage you can do that here, or buy art supplies for my studio here.
Sharing this newsletter, commenting on posts, and engaging with my posts on Notes (in the App) are all fine ways of supporting my work.
And finally, if you just can’t swing a subscription but want access to all the content, just drop me an email and ask me to comp you a paid subscription. I’m happy to do so, no explanations needed. Things happen to all of us, and I don’t want lack of funds to be the reason you can’t reap the benefits of nature journaling.
