Hi Francesca. Just wanted to say thank you for your comment on my artwork. It really made me feel like you look at the work deeply, which I appreciate so much!

hi francesca, I don't write fiction. I love doing collages, I guess there is a bit of a narrative to them. Just read your story above, very imaginative!! Never be discouraged & carry on following your own star.

Francesca, if you enjoyed writing your story, just go with that. Write what you enjoy writing, what you want to write, what you're called to write. Then you can think about plots and novels later, if you want to.

As to my career as a Creativity Coach, here's the short version: I started by coming across an amazing book called Be Your Own Life Coach by Fiona Harrold, read that, decided it was what I wanted to do, did a professional diploma in coaching over the next year or so, then in time realised that creativity coaching is where my heart really lies, as creativity plays such a huge role in my own life.

I did a further course with Eric Maisel and then started CoachCreative.com and the ezine Create Create! in Nov 2005.

And here we are nearly four years later. Thanks for your interest!

Wow Francesca, there's just so much in your story. I don't know where to start! I think there's huge potential here for a longer piece, even a book, in my humble opinion. I love the ideas in it and some of the lines are very touching. I like how it's philosophical as well as a story. It's like a timeless parable or a fairy story, but also a modern life tale.

"If you can think of a time when you were truly happy and free, when you did no harm and received no injury in this world, you’re halfway to heaven." I love this part. So true, heaven is amongst us and around us if we'd only open our eyes, hearts and minds...

Really there's much here you could expand on and add to. I hope you do, I'd love to read more...

Dan

Oh my stars, Francesca. This story is beautiful! You have great talent for writing, and I hope will write more and more. Thanks so much for sharing this tale here! WOW! If you need any help to post it in the writer's group, let me know and I'll be glad to answer any questions I can.

Hi Francesca and welcome to CCS! Wow, your greatest creative moment sounds great for sure! I got that e-book from Dan but I got distracted and haven't finished reading it ... I hope you'll share your fantastical story with us :)

Hi Francesca,
Sometimes I think my profile page is a bit busy. Takes away from the writing. I'll have to look into this and see if others are having that problem. In the meantime, thanks for taking the time to stop by.
I have a blog called
marlotus-says.blogspot.com
Please visit and say hi if you have time. Hopefully, you can read that blog!
Stay in touch.

Hi Francesca,
Welcome. I look forward to seeing your writings. There are wonderful poetry and writing groups here. I am a writer and artist so I'm sure we'll bump into each other somewhere. Enjoy the creative stimulus here and most importantly, let loose and have fun.
