I awoke this morning with vertigo. After medicine took affect I went into my studio with coffee. My intent was to work on a weekly prompt from Aim For Astonishing. As I sifted through letters a title popped into my mind so I wrote it down. As I continued my search I felt a strong compulsion to grab my journal and when I did words came unbidden spilling onto the page. I was surprised and excited over what had emerged. This kind of thing does not happen for me, so I reached out to my teacher and shared it. She had great insights and suggested letting it sit for a time before we worked together to further develop it because it was so powerful. Then a short time later while in the shower another piece came. I took the questions she offered and played around further with it. I am quite happy with the results and considering submitting for publication. Maybe it will be accepted somewhere, maybe not. The main point is I listened to what rose up, trusted myself and answered it's call to be written.
