Your writing takes me to a deeper way of thinking about creativity and now almost as a new entity- a relationship with my creativity. I will attempt to respond to your questions and ponderings. My creativity pops up here and there throughout the day, and my love of nature grounds me daily. It seems the relationship with my creativity is based in my joy of fiber crafts-wool appliqué, sewing, and even noting the complexity and extraordinary talents of fiber artists. I enjoy the feel of fabrics and threads, the smell of wool, the skill and talent required, the use of colors and the complexity of process in order to create a product. Time and energy thwart my ability to immerse myself more often into this realm; however, that is ok! I will soon be there again maybe an hour or a day to disappear into a creative journey.
Kathryn, I love this and it deeply resonates. It resonates because I see my deep need and that my hopes and dreams happen in courting creativity, and focussing on tending relationships, and in becoming unstuck from some things. It's so helps to be pointed to nature, and wonder, when we move, will I have a tree to get to know and that knows me? I love that you imprint your story in nature and relationship. I am encouraged and inspired, and can't wait to read your book. 💚
I'm just excited that your book is taking shape in new ways... as I read your writing I kept thinking, "I can't wait to read her book!"
