Older Women Writers

What a good idea. I am 67, and becoming excited about my Next 30 Vital Years (cribbed from Dr. Francis McNab, a Melbourne - Australia psychologist.) I confess to being a bit taken aback by my aging,…

Through the five honestly answered questions, I gained a lot. And a lot of respect for you. Congratulations on all you achieve, most of all, for me, is your honesty. And, forgive me please, but I have taken your last answer as something of a mantra…

I, too, am grateful to find this group ... thank you for making that possible. And, to be part of the founding membership, part of it's initial forming. How good is that! Shary, journal writing has been my path ... and even more so, now that I walk…

I am guided to believe that I am a Pathfinder; yet to discover more of this through the journey .. I am an emerging poet and spiritual writer. My contemplative lifestyle and simple values provide well for a centredness in writing. My aim is for my work to creatively portray a perception of the times we are in. Working with the small things of life; the ordinary ... I aim to allow a space for Spirit to work. Learning to express my love of people more ... and to grow my words of compassion.

A comic element sometimes coming to the fore... in my personality and writings.

Hi Judith,

The picture was taken during a hike in Minnewaska State Park in the Hudson Valley of New York --- a place I love. I joined the poetry memorization group because I cannot memorize, even my own work. So thought might get suggestions /ideas from the group. I like the speculative aspects of surreal fiction and the ability to shift reality and allow us a more encompassing view of 'life'. Am retired, a bit of a gypsy, rotate between Upstate NY, Houston, Tx (grandbabies) and Omaha, Nebraska. Used to teach yoga and was a poet in residence in Iowa & Nebraska. I'm writing a novel based in South Africa (where I was born and grew up). Am reading some David Malouf short stories...

Hi Judith- Unfortunately I don't seem to make time for poetry. I plan to rectify that though. I've just subscribed to a blog specially set up for a poem a day ( Australian author in Aussie She Writes). It made me realise what I'd been missing. So enjoyable. So I'm looking forward to yours, I hope you are enjoying Perth. Maybe we could catch up for a coffee some time.

Happy writing!

Heather

Hi Judith,
Thanks for message. It's great to share with other writers. Is there somewhere I read your poems online?

Hi Judith... To have you read so much is a very generous gift. Thank you. I am humbled and warmed by your encouragement. It's so sweet of you to say you're proud of me. How lovely. Not an imposition at all, on the contrary...sacred confirmation.

Thanks for your comments on my blogs, Judith. They mean a great deal to me today... especially today (which is a rather shitty day, frankly!) ;-) Much appreciated.

I should point out that I'm both an author (co-authored a doctor's memoir that sold at auction on the basis of my proposal) and a literary agent. So, I speak from experience. Anita
