WE START HERE
We start here.
So sit down and get started in on that looming yet inviting gathering of writing clouds.
You can pull things from the air, if you like.
You can also weave in the special things you are intrigued with in nature.
You are welcome to write for 15 minutes or a whole day, breaking only for food, coffee, water and bathroom trips.
You are welcome in your finest clothes, or your comfy pajamas.
Your most angry self, your envious, hateful self, your loving self your transcended self are all welcome at this writing space.
And so, have a seat and have a seat and have a seat for your many selves you wish to spill onto paper.
There is always forgiveness given.
Even my shaking hands and cloudy memory and neurons’ miss-firings are all forgiven.
It is a place for you to become whole, to see the whole of your life
or the missing pieces or the oh-so-very rich pieces.
They are welcome to show their shiny hopefulness,
or your tender, scratched places,
and your priceless hope and tears.
