Sometimes writing for me is pure elation, but in today’s exercise I struggled with my inner critic. Here’s an excerpt from my journal: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I feel inside me the green possibilities<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"journaling<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

growing like vines,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

everywhere these creative ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when I put pen to paper…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blah<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blah<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blah<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"journaling<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Like I’ve forgotten how<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to write<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to live<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to conjure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where has my muse <\/a>gone?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And where can I find her?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the woods?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under a rock?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digging in the garden?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peekaboo! Where are you hiding?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your Turn <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
