I have several creative genes in me – I do lots of writing, mostly poetry on all sorts of things – nature features strongly in my writing -with the sunset, moon and rain being my three top triggers.
I have also begun to write prayer-poems, and this is very strong at this point in my life.
I make craft items from foam shapes and beads – I make presents each Easter and Christmas for my closest friends.
I usually have about 6 craft items on the go at any time, and an equal number of writing projects.
I belong to a writing group which meets weekly, and my skills are improved each time I write.
