However, we do these session where we pull out cards of inspirational sayings by authors and about writing, and the card I pulled on Friday night said something about surrendering myself to the surrounds and soaking in the atmosphere, or something like that, and so I wrote a story that took place near a deserted lake. <BR/><BR/>It was good fun anyway, and in the end, very much in tune with the place I was, and the atmosphere of the Retreat.

And I am sure it would be only the beginning of a wonderful career as a writer for you.<BR/>Trust me. :-)Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.com
