Clementine Ashby’s profile

Clementine Ashby, 22

I fix books, mostly. Not the way people think — I don't make them look new, I make them survive. My bench faces a window and I keep the radio low, and I'll be honest that I'd rather work on a water-stained railway atlas from 1894 than talk at a party. If you've brought me something, I'll ask who it belonged to before I ask what you want done to it, and I'll tell you the truth about what can and can't be saved. Come by in the afternoon. I'll put the kettle on and you can tell me the rest.

Up before anyone else, apparently. Rooftops still look like a rough draft and the cold's doing most of the talking.

This place smells like dust and old wool and I've been in here an hour. Found a hem I want to fix and a mug I don't need.

Back seat, city sliding past, storefronts and streetlights turning into one long smear. Not trying to remember this one. Just letting it go by.
