Life is magical, but you might not know it from the way we muddle through the mundane. Take the journey with my contemporary shaman story as characters awaken to their foibles--you might recognize yourself in one or two--and discover their true selves--their potential rather than muddle, dreams instead of dramas, and find that laughter is the natural state of being. There is much more to life than meets the eye. Every moment is available for transformation.
I write and facilitate to encourage people toward their awakening. I love awakening the laughter within.
Read for enjoyment and to heal.
I have led shield-making and meditation gatherings since 1991, bringing insights and awakenings to shield-makers. Of interest to other writers, I have led retreats and meditative writing sessions in Colorado and Virginia. I am a retired marketing manager and have found the expression of being a shaman in my words and writing. Feel free to heal along with the characters. The stories are my gift to you.
I am an intuitive writer of fiction, such as the Faerie book (When Turnips Fly, Magic is in the Air) and the three-volume Shaman series, Coming Home (Rock Lion Wolf, Sweet Oblivion, and The Shaman in the Grass). This technique is introspective and creative. It uses no outlines. I have no idea when a new character is going to appear until he or she appears. I don't know all the twists and turns or humorous remarks until they float across my mind. Writing this way is most enjoyable and lighthearted.
I wrote from waking until noon when Spirit would pull back, and I would be free for ordinary life the rest of the day. It was totally blissful, and Spirit said, "It is the new way of writing." The process began when I left my beloved Colorado Rocky Mountains to live in Central Virginia in the shadows of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I sat on a boulder in my new backyard and asked Spirit for the gift of a story needed by humanity. The story continued through three volumes, across ten years. It is a gift I release to readers for enjoyment, healing, and learning.
