Thank you. My writing aims are in sync with your message.
I might be interested in knowing more about one of your retreats, especially the one in Ontario. I have ancestry roots there.
Lynn,
When I hear your ideas and encouragement in these videos I can feel my creative juices begin to percolate. It’s like the seeds you plant with words have begun to swell.
