remarkable resources on love, loss and personal legacy
Welcome to our site and its remarkable resources on love, loss and personal legacy. Please "come in" and enjoy our weekly letter, poem, and image...browse our offerings of books, cards, and kits...or check our recommendations for some of the best reading on grief and bereavement available in bookstores today. And if you're in the Treaesure Coast, Florida area, please visit our Events page for news of our classes on writing and creativity.
Dramatically as our art forms and personal lives may differ, I know that many if not most other “creatives” share these same questions, especially in a time when financial issues lend a sense of scarcity and constraint to so many lives. I look forward to collaborating on a day of mutual exploration, discovery, and support, and hope you will join us if you can.
On July 18, I’m offering a one-day class called “De-Cluttering Your Creativity” at the Vero Beach Museum of Art. It’s the first session on creativity generally, rather than writing specifically, that I’ve taught in a long time, and I designed it straight from my own questions and challenges. How do I keep the everyday “clutter” of commitments, priorities, personalities, and just plain stuff from overwhelming the space and time I need to pursue my creative work? What kind of space do I need in my heart, my home, my schedule, my budget, my relationships to do my writing and make my art? Why is it so easy to put other needs—and others’ needs—first, before this practice that feeds me so deeply?
