In the flurry of retirement, I got four different journals as going away gifts! It is a message I take with honor, laughter, and a slight stirring of fear. Before this when people urged from different directions, "why aren't you writing more?", I would always dodge the bullet and say, " I will when I retire."
Now what do I say?!
I get so inspired throughout the day and as quickly as the thought comes, it flits away unless nailed to something concrete like paper or screen. Yes, one can have native talent, but the art comes from discipline and practice.
I'm pretty sure I'll start next week....! I have four journals to fill!
