Querida Susannah, you know how I’ve sporadically written and then walked away from my characters! Currently I’m working on a new creative project for them. It has me facing many things I do not know how to do, so I’m focusing on one step, one task at a time. There’s certainly fear, and those negative voices like to chatter away, though somehow I feel differently about this project and my new approach. Thank you for your perceptive wisdom. It’s always helpful and such a joy to read your posts.
Susannah, what I love about your exercises is that I'm never sure where they'll go. What has come from this is that I prefer encouraging others to write than doing it myself, and also what a wonderful life I have at the moment. It is not what I expected and it could seem quite dull to some people but I really do love my life. I do teach writing workshops already and am trying to get into schools to encourage young people to enjoy creative writing, but I am going to have a bit of a wider look today and see if there is anything out there.
Thank you for the exercise and for the contented feeling I am enjoying :) X
