Talking to a friend this morning I remembered how burnt out I was after participating in the Article Writing course I mentioned in the article. I took up offered extensions so the whole thing ended up being six months long. I was raising thee children, living on a farm and working full time in my training marketing copywriting business. So yes I learnt valuable skills but the adrenaline fuelled way of living/thinking was detrimental to me and those around me. I wanted to share that in the interests of balance.

Oh no! Schumacher College is no longer operational? I'm so saddened by this. Their existence gave me hope.

On another note, I love your take on composting failures and mistakes and how you weave the physical aspects of compost.

How synchronistic that the same idea has been simmering in the recesses of my mind.

I have so many drafts and I'm now questioning the process of writing the 'perfect' & finished article. What if we could write in raw, unpolished form, and hit the publish button the way we speak in real time? How would the message come across to readers? Would they still be able to get the message out of it? :)

I also appreciate the questions you pose and the resources you put forward.

Thank you for reminding us of the aliveness that's within and around us. <3
