Open Journal.
Write everyday.
Sketching with words, from home and on the road:
A living compilation of thoughts, ideas, stories, and impressions.
Be Your Own Compass:
Today, I awoke at sunrise and headed to the banks of Coffee Creek Watershed Preserve, to hang out with the deer and share reflections from the week. In this Open Journal, I talk about new discoveries, engaging with the magic of nature, and generating new growth through embracing what truly lights up your soul.
