I love the thought of a New Year ~ A clean slate ~ A new beginning ~ A chance to start over ~ I want to take this time to thank all of you who have made 2011 a joyous one for me ~ My Family, My Friends ~ New friends I have made along the way ~ You have encouraged and inspired me, and made me believe in myself when I certainly had doubt. This year I plan to explore new areas in photography and writing. I hope to attend new workshops, and learn new things. My eyes are wide open to new challenges and collaborations with other artists. What are you looking forward to in 2012?
I thought this image was appropriate for how I am feeling today. I seemed to have gotten a second wind with being creative this year. I am excited to tell you about my new treasure in writing. It is a newfound website (that I found in a column in Oprah's Nov 2011 magazine) called 750Words.com. This site follows the steps of Julia Cameron's The Artists Way. It helps you work towards a better writing style. It encourages you to write 750 words a day. This is approximately 3 typewritten pages of words. I am finding it easier to pick a theme (from Patti Digh's LIFE IS A VERB book - Thanks, Patti!) to help create daily themes. Please cheer me on to continue this daily ritual. Have you started a new routine that you would like to share?
I am looking forward to see more of your poetry and photography K! Hope this year will bring even more creativity and success to all of us! :)
