How good it must feel to get through the first phase (iteration). You have come a long way and now it is time to celebrate your journey thus far. It has been wonderful to hear all about it. Well done!

Congratulations to you -- and thank you for the reminder to celebrate the process, the trying, all the iterations. I love your illustration on the binder cover!

Thank you! It was really helpful for me to see the organization of the book as a wheel - a friend recently sent me another book that does this and calls it the "circle of contents," a name I find inspiring as well.

Love that expression--circle of contents! Sounds like one way to describe my thought process! Often, not linear, and circling the same big ideas : ) Thanks for sharing.

Excited for your iteration moment and what comes next and keeping you in my prayers for patience for you in making this move forward, I can hardly write an email without changing it several times. Can't wait to hear more.

Thank you for your prayers, especially for patience. I'm learning how sometimes downtime, noticing, and waiting is as important as times of active creating.

Kathryn, it is so good to receive your newsletter! I realize that I’ve missed a couple of them. I’m excited for your book journey. Thank you for opening my thoughts to the concept of iterations. There are a number of areas in my life that I need reframe in the light of iterations, including my creative life. Thank you! May you and your family be well!

Thank you! My kids love to tease me about how much I use the library so it was fun to get to share my enthusiasm for a place I love!
