@kristen_kieffer Yay!! I love to hear that. Daily joys and good steady work: it's a wonderful combo. :)

@kristen_kieffer Slowly getting better, working with a good doctor. So, I'm hopefully out of the woods soon!! Hope you're doing well! Always lovely crossing paths with you. :)

@kristen_kieffer It's been a weird year so far, with a ton of bizarre health concerns (which have affected verbal comprehension skills), so I haven't tried to write: journaling and reading sometimes, when I can. It's been strange, but I'm learning a lot too--

[Lucy Flint @lucyflintwrites]

As artists, we explore the territory of the human heart, braving the dark woods to report ... that a trail can be found. --Julia Cameron

Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen. -- Robert Bresson (via Julia Cameron)

"Art aims at expressing our originality. The norm has nothing to do with it." - Julia Cameron

Note to self: quit aiming at normal.

Genius is mainly an affair of energy. -- Matthew Arnold

[Lucy Flint @lucyflintwrites]

"Nothing is wrong, nothing is wasted, nothing is neurotic, nothing is disowned, everything is possible in art." -- Julia Cameron

[Lucy Flint @lucyflintwrites]

"Art is not linear, and neither is the artist's life. ... You do not become a novelist by moving from A to B to C." -- Julia Cameron

[Lucy Flint @lucyflintwrites]

We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us. - Joseph Campbell

[Lucy Flint @lucyflintwrites]

Note to self for always: Even if you're moving more slowly than you'd like, you can still make something beautiful. #amwriting
