Sometimes I think I ought to start my own group




Ah, blog time is very short sometimes. Things move by quickly. It's only been about 2 months since I wrote my Blogging the Artist Way finale. Today I did a little reorganizing of my sidebar links. Mostly I put them in alphabetical order. I'm sure I will continue to change them. I think I will remove the Blogging the Artist's Way button soon. I just didn't quite have the heart to take it away yet.

I miss that group. I miss Kat. Bless Kat's heart she's getting married and needed to take a blogging break. It has been slowly sinking in that what I really loved about the AW group was how it fed my passion. I love to read or hear about other's creative process - the struggle and the triumph. I found all of it so inspiring.

I also miss Greenishlady. Oh, I hope she is having a fabulous journey. I anticipate the day when she returns to tell us all about it.

There are others I miss too. In Otter Space is less active and I just know that's because school is out and she and her kids are enjoying the new porch. I miss Eliza - I miss Laura - I miss Tess. I guess in some ways I feel like school is out for summer and I'm going through a phase where I miss my friends.

Ah, but new blog things are occurring. Poetry Thursday is wonderful. One of these days I may join the group - but mostly I just like to go around and see what poems everyone is sharing.

The Sunday Scribble takes me all week to read and I don't always leave comments - but this group is fun. Also I've made some new connections which mean a lot to me - Paris Parfait - thank you for leaving me comments over the last few weeks.

There are really too many of you to acknowledge, but let this be a thank you to you (yes, I mean you) if you've been coming to read and especially if you've left a comment. I'd like to pretend a comment doesn't matter - but it does - and so I vow to try to leave more comments at blogs I visit.



Sometimes I think I ought to start my own group. I so badly want to have more time to participate in all the wonderful groups out there so it seems unrealistic to me to create yet another group. However, I miss the creative process sharing we had in the Blogging The Artist Way group. What continues to inspire me and cause me to go searching around blogland is to know how the creative process is going for you? Where are you getting stuck? Where could you use a little support? What would you like to cheer about?

Everyday we get up and we create our lives. My blog group would be all inclusive. Anyone who felt like they had something to say about creating or creativity or their process in creating could leave a link. It could be any kind of post - writing, photos, collage, food, books - etc...... I know this already sounds like all the blogs I already read because there is a reason I read the blogs I do - you all have creative sparks flying out of your posts.

Still, I think how cool it would be to have a gathering spot to share creative support while participating in this thing called life. So leave me a comment if you have a "creative process post"
