The year kicked off with zero creativity - not many songs and no ability to see forward into the year and the projects that I would like to get my teeth stuck into - usually its pretty obvious for me but not this year.

I’d heard about these seasons that sometimes occur in the lives of artists, so wasn’t stressed about the fact that I was in one. Rather, I just kept myself in relationship with those who weren’t in the same place as me (people who were creating, writing etc) and exposing myself to environments that fed me creatively (e.g.natural environment, reading, leading my community in spiritual songs etc). Today I felt like I just got a glimpse of this season ending as I sat down with my great friend Ruth and conversed about the one thing that I had booked in late last year - an artists retreat in October 2010. As we chatted this is what spilled out from it.

Something has changed, shifted, moved (and its more than my beee-hind!) - is today the beginning of something new?
