You're very welcome, Matthew! If you want to read more, that Mary Oliver quote is from her essay, "Of Power and Time." There's much good there about creative work. And well done on your Substack blog; I've enjoyed what I've read so far!
You have a beautiful and gentle soul, Nancy. I always enjoy reading your reflections--and your lovely prose. Good for you in leaving full-time work to give more time to your creative life. It must have been a difficult decision, but I'm glad you discerned your truer calling. I hope we'll see another book from you soon. Your friend, Ken Garcia
Congratulations on your job change, Nancy. I'm rooting for you!
Such a rich mix to ponder and hold close or to set at a distance and let it be.
Re: the Mary Oliver quotation: yes, I did need that encouragement. Thank you, Nancy!

Thank you, Ken, for these words of encouragement. I’ll say the same to you, I hope we’ll be seeing another book soon from you as well!
