The Year of Joys is a leap-year-long photo project documenting a small joy each day. I'll be posting pics each Friday. You can follow along daily on Instagram (my handle is @maegyosef) and participate, too!

It's true, I was posting these here daily but have decided to scale back, for congruence's sake. I want to focus on the super juicy posts that I love to write, spend extra time on my book commission and work for galleries, and enjoy at least one computer free day a week! Woot!

Here's wishing you a wonderful weekend,

xoxo Maeg
