Beautiful. It's almost a perfect description for creating visual art too.

Thanks Dian.

I love the use of the word “faithful” as applied to the practice. The word calls up images of religion and love and of loving dedication.

Writing for me (especially these days) is a sacred practice, a kind of daily meditation and the concept of faithfulness frames it beautifully for me.

I also love the idea of committing only to thirty minutes daily and discovering during or after those few dedicated moments that time blurs & the writing flows.

Hope you are having a grand & flowing time there at your writing retreat.❤️

Yep. Thirty minutes or even fewer works every time. Thanks Dian. You not only tell us how you do it, but you show us...another novel releasing soon and another under your pen! Impressive.
