The journey started a few years back when I offered a reflective writing workshop for a group of burned out women ministers and Christian educators--they gathered each month for a restorative morning together. We met again, and again, and began to envision a book of their writings. And now, voila! The first group reading from the book is tonight. None of us had any idea on that crisp fall day back in 2007 that in 2011 we would be offering readings, reflective writing time, and workshops based on a book of their writings.
Writing begets writing. Meaning grows on the page.
Keep going. Even when you have no idea where you're going. Even when pages--and the hair you're yanking out--litter the floor.
Hang in there. Content yields to form, eventually. And the writing will take you places you never imagined.
