Creative Juices

When I see a ranch for the very first time, the creative juices begin to flow. I start to visualize the ultimate restoration to the “signature” (first class) working/recreational ranch and the proper plans for resource improvement. It is, in essence, my creative expression. Writing for me is an equally inspired outlet. I enjoy having a story bounce and echo in my mind inspired by the flow of energy of the terra firma stage upon which the characters dance their historical tango of courage, duplicity, sizzling passions and bitter disappointment. And as they dance and whisper the words begin to flow.

It is an interesting symbiosis, this mix of creative expression, the energy of land as a catalyst to expression on its surface, on the pages of historical fiction, and just this month in the anecdotal non-fiction Land for Love and Money.

And, it’s all good. No-make that great!

    • Carole–so glad you like my thoughts and writings. There is something magical bout places and land handed down from generation to generation–an increase in that current of energy that seems to draw us to the land! But the reality is we must be alert to forces that seek to under mine that bond–thanks for commenting!
