It's been a challenging time for me, that's for sure. I don't think of myself as a hero but one thing I do know is that the kindness and support of people like you, has been amazing!<br /><br />I never thought of editing as sculpting but you are right! It is shaping a piece of writing just like adding and subtracting clay is shaping a sculpture. <br /><br />I, too, am passionate about the interconnections in the arts and life. That's why I started a new blog and website http://voicesoflivingcreatively.blogspot.com and www.voicesoflivingcreatively.com to honor people who creatively live their lives. <br /><br />Thank you, Janet for your wise words and friendship, as always.<br />Susan Gallacher-TurnerSusan Gallacher-Turner https://www.blogger.com/profile/04060849318151375753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33974539.post-15626168059285103012009-07-10T11:58:31.485-07:002009-07-10T11:58:31.485-07:00Susan,

It can be done. That is the work of bridging.<br /><br />I'm passionate about the interconnection between the arts and I'm so glad you're pursuing that in yourself.<br /><br />Think of it this way--no matter what you do, there will be an element of sculpture in it....because sculpting is shaping...and that's the essence of creative discipline.<br /><br />In writing this comes out most clearly in the editing and re-writing phase.<br /><br />Just try a little rotational limiting and you can keep up both for a long time to come.<br /><br />Take a deep breath and pat yourself all over for a job well-done.<br /><br />Janet RiehlJanet Grace Riehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03921731725804450430noreply@blogger.com
