I am as ever touched by your mention of my site, and the things you are gaining from it. Sometimes blogging, and indeed doing anything on the internet, can feel like throwing things out into the void - it's nice to get feedback and assurance that people are out there reading and gaining something from my words. I've had a brief look through the site here, and I'm sure will do so more later on, but I am struck by our similarities and interests, writing, woodcarving, cats, spirituality and poetry.. I too dabbled with "The Right To Write", and have struggled endlessly with beliefs of creativity=pointlessness. Art comes from the verb "To BE", thus those orientated towards DOING can have difficulty with it. Yet to be happy one must learn how to be, and to have beauty in our lives we must learn to let Life be our Art. I'll get your site linked up from mine shortly, love the title and the design.
