 |  Day to day stuff....a memoir without order. |
 Imagination is described by Webster as...The act or power of forming a mental image of something not present to the senses in reality. Albert Einstein said "Logic will get you from A to B, but imagination will take you everywhere."  I never realized it until I read it somewhere but there are ways to boost one's imagination: Create a visual journal Draw whatever you see for 15 minutes a day. You don't need to be an artist. Think like an artist Cut out pictures from magazines & piece them together to create an original image. Listen to Bach Close your eyes while playing your favorite music. Or listen to the sounds of nature on a CD or in the great outdoors. Play word games Try thinking of as many words as you can that begin with MAR...or you pick. Daydream Let your mind wander, or focus on a single object & study its characteristics.     Everyone has a story....here's mine.....c   |
| My daughter visited last Saturday and accompanied me to my local writing group's Sunshine State Book Festival and it was awesome! 150 authors from all over the place but many from right here in Gainesville, Florida! I did a stint at the information table in the morning and met many interesting people. We had a huge crowd. Check it out here, https://www.facebook.com/WritersAllianceofGainesville, and scroll down a little. After, we went to a popular local pizza joint (Satchel's), and then we visited a Thrift store (Outreach)...which is one of my fav places to go. Found a great jacket vest that fit perfectly. Can't wait to go back again. I'm so happy the Eagles won and are on their way to the Super Bowl! Go Philadelphia! The book (Horse by Geraldine Brooks) that I'm reading for my book club is fantastic, and I highly recommend it, well-written, informative, great plot, and if you like horses, you can't go wrong. My Zoom critique group met last Wednesday and with Ann out, we were only three, but we took up all our time getting caught up on each other's life journeys, a wedding and a surgery just two of the things in the works. Hope Ann is well enough to join us next time. This Wednesday I have a Life Story Group Meeting that I am looking forward to. And thank heavens for warm weather....80 degrees today!! |
