Here’s what’s making us happy this week.

Happy Friday, readers. This week, your local Lit Hub staff is finding joy in simple delights. Molly Odintz discovered a helpful tool that allows readers to track translations of their favorite authors. The Digital Library of Korean Literature is an elegantly structured resource, providing international footprints of beloved works like Han Kang's.

James Folta is enjoying a "very dumb" project: Ted Travelstead's Vlog. Writer and actor Ted Travelstead has created something that is both silly and simple. Take just 15 seconds to watch and decide for yourself.

Drew Broussard and Jonny Diamond both have an interest in apples. Drew recently discovered two apple trees on his property that have started fruiting after years of not bearing fruit. Jonny, our editor, has embraced his role in a cider house, where he has produced apples into cider. The experience has proven to be quite delightful.

Meanwhile, I, Brittany Allen, have been eagerly anticipating a busy fall concert season. This weekend, I attended a recreation of The Last Waltz at the White Eagle Hall in Jersey City. For twelve years, a group of talented fans has been coming together to perform The Band's 1976 farewell concert with great fidelity to the original set list. While some aspects were predictable, the differences were intriguing.

As we bid farewell to the past and embrace the present, let us find pleasure in the simple things life has to offer. Autumn sweaters, crisp air, and ripe apples await us. Enjoy the weekend filled with autumn pleasures, eased weights, and an abundance of apples.
