distilled from stars: Evelyn
http://distilledfromstars.blogspot.com/2014/03/evelyn.html
Friday, March 21, 2014. On Saturday I emailed my mother a question about a sewing needle and found out my Nonnie, my maternal grandmother, was not doing well. She sometimes knew people, but a moment later might not. And I carried this thought - would she know me? All that day. That night I dreamed I was standing outside the little Catholic church of my childhood, wearing a black dress. I saw my Nonnie and approached with hesitation, "Nonnie? And she beamed and said "Jeannine! Julie Andrews, but hear.

distilled from stars: proceed to the root
http://distilledfromstars.blogspot.com/2013/10/proceed-to-root.html
Saturday, October 19, 2013. Proceed to the root. From here to there and back again. Over a web of interstates and highways. Two turnpikes, and steel bridges in yellow,. And back roads too. The ones not in the original plan. But the yield there, oh how very precious,. The pieces of a mystery clicking in to place. And I think "what if we hadn't taken that turn". What a loss that would've been. All the way, and particularly the closer we got to home. The robotic voice of the GPS admonished us.

distilled from stars: snow
http://distilledfromstars.blogspot.com/2015/02/sloppy-snow-weighing-down-shoulders-of.html
Friday, February 27, 2015. Sloppy snow, weighing down the shoulders of the trees out back. Is it snowing where you are? All the world that I see from my tower is draped in white and the flakes are coming down as big as pop-corns. It's late afternoon - the sun is just setting (a cold yellow color) behind some colder violet hills, and I am up in my window seat using the last light to write to you.".

distilled from stars: notice things closely, and remember
http://distilledfromstars.blogspot.com/2013/10/walk-boardwalk-circle-turret-pass.html
Monday, October 21, 2013. Notice things closely, and remember. Walk the boardwalk, circle the turret, pass the weeping willow. And the ducks and swans to the bench just beyond. North Bay Park, Ypsilanti, Michigan (2013). And remember in noticing such landmarks that you may want to use your knowledge of them some day for telling some one else how to find his way, so you must notice them pretty closely so as to be able to describe them unmistakably and in their proper order. Leave a record of your travels,.

distilled from stars: June 2014
http://distilledfromstars.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 2, 2014. Thanks to the most wonderful, Debi. For asking me to play. Some thoughts on my creative process as it is right this moment. A snapshot, if you will. What am I working on? How does my work differ from others in its genre? I don’t really think about genres when it comes to what I do. Why do I write/create what I do? An answer with two parts:. Notice things closely, and remember. His thing to analyze why. This is his thing. Does it really matter why? I can I want to. Mostly, it’s...
