I wonder who’s motivationally helpful words they were 😊 🌼😊 I’m glad they were helpful in finding your way through “ between books” I am sewing and enjoying allowing myself to explore but also flow with what comes. It’s all connecting and formative.
Thank you, Nicola! I appreciate your comment. Lovely... a sewing project where you allow what wants to come into form sounds auspicious and exciting. 💖 I was talking with another friend who isn't on Substack but read my post and she shared that between her projects (non-writing related) she is aware of gathering together the pieces for her next creation. This also resonated with me, for my next book (memoir) to come into form, I had to live the experiences to be able to express what I learned in words... so, there's actually always something going on!!! How busy us creatives are!!! 🐝✍🏻
I enjoyed reading these thoughts and pictures, Leanda. Thank you. I love the idea of drawing yourself back to writing. And what a beautiful drawing you've just created and shared here, in this post. For me, every book and "in-between-time" are different. Now that my next novel is (essentially) finished and with a publisher, I'm writing poetry again. Maybe that's what my "drawing" is these days. And actually, when I look back at the process of writing fiction over the years, I realize how necessary it's always been, at certain times, to shift into that other medium of poetry. Each one of us finds our own way.
Dearest Robyn, poetry has been a staple for me too. Thank you so much 🙏🥰 I fully appreciate your sentiment that, ‘Each one of us develops a necessary relationship with the unknown.’ It is a joy and deeply meaningful to assist others to express themselves from the core of their being. 💫🎶🦋✨ xx
Hi Leanda,

Keep up the good work as they say.
