For me it's often a place, not a time, that drives inspiration. I can always write at our cabin, surrounded by peace and quiet. But the rest of the time, it's a struggle. Perhaps I'll try your approach: make writing the start of my day, every day. Thanks for sharing this journey.Electric | Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09047673548169562279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-20327391078544526292014-08-22T15:11:48.200-04:002014-08-22T15:11:48.200-04:00Oh man, I know what you mean."I am someone wh...Oh man, I know what you mean."I am someone who likes to have a purpose for whatever I am doing or else it seems like wasted time." This thought stops me far too often. A goal would help, but sometimes I think that can put undo pressure on me too. So glad it's makes for a happy day for you.

I agree with Amy . . . you have a gift in your photography and your writing . . . and it brings me great pleasure that you share your gift. I share many of the same fears you express. I often lament, what next? What should I DO with my photography? Should I try to have my work published? Seek licensing agreements? Submit to magazines? Take on commercial work? And then my very best friend reminds me that it is perfectly okay to just let my picture taking BE . . . my means of sharing myself with the world. I'll look forward to your writing, your realizations, and always your authentic and creative spirit. I'm a morning person, too - so I'll be thinking of you, with pen in hand, at 5am!Donna Hopkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03102284065955298362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-75398679090986690832014-07-30T19:51:27.556-04:002014-07-30T19:51:27.556-04:00I admire your willingness to go forward and pursue...I admire your willingness to go forward and pursue your goal...letting the process decide your direction.

Such a wonderful thing to find a passionate interest as your daughter is growing up and in the process of leaving home. I have taken several journaling classes and have enjoyed my writing for this, but a writing class sounds really fun. Enjoy! and we will be enjoying your developing writing skills too!Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08282631333469688624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-92114009415339610432014-07-29T21:59:22.242-04:002014-07-29T21:59:22.242-04:00Hi Sarah ... such a great idea to set time aside f...Hi Sarah ... such a great idea to set time aside for what you love. I always wake early before the house starts to stir and do something just for myself ... it could be knitting, cross stitching, photography edits, blogging ... whatever I want. It sure does bring a great start to my day! sounds like you are really going to enjoy your class!nancyjeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12956833309701970381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-76451822448990009452014-07-29T21:39:44.673-04:002014-07-29T21:39:44.673-04:00Setting aside the time is such a good idea.
