Two boxes arrived in our mailbox yesterday. One contained some books for work. The other one held this thin book by Luci Shaw on journaling. The timing was perfect. Ruth had written a post about making time for writing and I had my end of year staff meeting. The next two weeks of work will be less hurried as fewer of us are on campus and the work to be done is more about paper and less about people. This morning, I read the first few chapters and spend a bit of time writing about writing. tIt reminds me of a time when our daughter (who was not fond of reading) saw a magazine about books and exclaimed, “Who would want to read about reading?” (She loves to read now I am happy to say). So, I am equipping myself to do more writing this summer, reading and writing and reading about writing. Sounds like heaven to me.
