The Gathering at Keystone College begins tomorrow, July 15th.
I can't believe this will be my third year attending the Gathering.
It seems each time I have participated I have returned to my work-a-day life transformed at least a little bit.
The first year I realized that I was entitled to call myself a writer if that is what I wanted to be. That the "real writer people" I met were not really so different than I was.
The second year I walked away empowered to own my stories without fear or shame. It enabled me to reenergize a writing project stalled because of my doubts in the voicing of the narrative.
I have no idea what this third year will bring but I am open and ready to receive it. YEAH!!!
