SUMMER SOLSTICE: Check in
This weekend is the Summer~Solstice... one of those pinnacle moments... (in the Northern hemisphere) the longest day of the year... the climax of the season... As we always look at the creative cycle and how it is echoed in nature... I want to reflect on the SOLSTICE and how it plays out in my INNER WORK
πŸ‘‡ HOW IS YOUR CREATIVE PROCESS?πŸ‘‡ (asking because I really want to know)
πŸ”₯ Is the summer encouraging or conflicting with your creative practice~?
πŸ”₯ Do you have a season that supports your writing/creativity more than others?
πŸ”₯ What is your favorite part of summer?

's update.
I have rediscovered an old love. I met an old manuscript that I have remembered for years like an old crush, more like a missed connection in the newspaper... we almost got together (this story and I) in 2006, but it didn't work out. We are getting another chance to make sweet magic. Every night last week, I stayed up late with the manuscript, first reading, then rewriting missing bits.
I am ~ EXCitified. Excited + Terrified.
all the potential. all the emotion. all the anxiousness and all the fear that I am the only one who will ever read it, who will ever love it.
I reached out to a friend of mine who is an agent because I want to share this story with her, but so far, I have been too afraid to say more. What if she loves it... scared of that. What if she passes on it? ... Scared of that.
I will be heading to BOSTON in July for the BOOK THINKERS Conference... I will give you the Cliff Notes on that next month.
