an excerpt:
"Enjoy the freedom and independence of being unpublished. Oh never mind; you will not understand the freedom and independence of being unpublished until you get a book deal. But trust me, in ten years you’ll look back at those early notebooks and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much autonomy you enjoyed and how many long, lazy days you were free to spending working on a single chapter.
It made me miss my sketchbooks and notebooks and spending time filling pages full of odd doodles and notes and mixed media experiments just to get the crazy stuff out of my head. I don't keep a regular sketchbook anymore. Which makes me a bit sad. So, inspired by this post. I picked up pen and paper yesterday and for an hour I doodled crazy stuff, just like I used to. Gonna try and do this every day. Thank you Wendy. And Liz.Your handwriting is not as bad as you imagine...Write one sentence every day that excites you." ~read more.

I love odd doodling! I'm going to go make a cup of tea and word-doodle on my front porch!
ReplyDeleteoh wendy, this makes me very happy! Not quite as happy as if I was able to join you on said front porch. But still!
