This book of poems written before and after my BIG Artventure sums up my life to date. If you have read my blog I created during the trip, you have shared in some of my Artventures. When you read the book, you will share more in those Artventures and the feelings during them. The trip I took across the country and back turned out to have a much greater purpose than delivering my son to college. It wouldn't end there. My BIG Artventure continues, renewed each day. Each day I have to remind myself to create it the way I really want it to be. Some days I cannot figure out how and some days I am simply too busy surviving or neglecting to decide what I want. My writing encourages me and my intention is that it encourages you also!
