Writing Quote of the Week
“The next time you feel the urge to create, sit with the feeling. Go to a place of stillness, become completely in touch with your body, bring your consciousness to bear on this urge, and you will feel it in your body: a sensation, perhaps almost imperceptible, that begins in the nest of your pelvis, then rises up, reaching your heart and throat, and bursts into an aching, a longing, a profound need.” – Teri Degler
