Since I was about 10, I've always written and longed to write more and I mostly fill my life with other things that include writing but don't allow me to focus on it. I write with Valley when I can, post short pieces over on Substack, and have a memoir that remains in process. I regularly write and deliver sermons. This summer I'm on sabbatical from one of my jobs, and after a pilgrimage to the island of Iona starting Tuesday, I'm hoping to spend much of July going deeper. Since I also have two adopted children, age 3 & 4, it remains to be seen how much I will write. I look forward to getting to know more of you and to writing with you!
