I came back over to your castle because I posted a cute picture of my Mr. D'Arcy and Miss Junie that I would like you to see. This weekend I read "At a Journal Workshop" (Ira Progroff; "Writing as a Way of Healing" (Louise DeSalvo); and, "Jamaica Kincaid; Writing Memory; Writing Back to the Mother" (Brooks Bouson). (You asked!) Selected chapters. I did an exercise writing to my muse which I posted...difficult...and then I had to post my lovely animal pics...to make myself happy again. I hope you come by for a little peek! <3Cynthia Pittmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12656761837022197235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688566251618947246.post-80350240675197598102009-02-22T04:55:00.000-08:002009-02-22T04:55:00.000-08:00Dea LalaThese sound absolutely fascinating.I'm afr...Dea Lala<BR/>These sound absolutely fascinating.<BR/>I'm afraid I'm reading an old fashioned English book "Miss Buncle's BooK" from Persephone books in London.<BR/>Hope you are wel? and your family in Africa?Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03964291132366262298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688566251618947246.post-81179584206372971642009-02-22T04:27:00.000-08:002009-02-22T04:27:00.000-08:00Both of these sound wonderful.
