A New Venture

Over the past ten days, I have decided to learn to write in a more conscious manner.  This new desire has spurred me on by meeting eight women who write in a manner that makes me think in different directions, expanding my spirit, exercising my mind in a manner that I embrace.  This new direction came about from participating in the women's writing retreat held in Redstone, Colorado last weekend, directed by Sandy Dorr.  Then I signed up for her writing class "Path to Writing," eight sessions extending through April.
Homework thus far has consisted of reading and discussing other writers and their work.  So far, we have read from Ursala Le Guin, Jane Hirshfield, Sara Teasdale, Rebecca Lee, Claire Keegan, Jamaica Kincaid, Robert Pinsky and Ellen Bass.  Many more authors were discussed but I was so full of words and pages of writing that I cannot hold them all together in one hand right now.
If you are interested in my pathway to writing, hop on over to my new blog, Path of Writing.  Please comment and give constructive criticism.  I value your thoughts.
I leave you with this image and verse shared by Katie who also attended the women's writing retreat.
