Have so loved watching the seasons of spring and summer there this year especially. I love yor photos, Eden!<br /><br />Winter approaches, and am hoping to spend more time on the WIP once garden is 'put to bed' for that season. I think nature, though, is enormously good for the soul, and writers need that, to offset the hours at the desk, indoors! What a super 'retreat' Dipika!

It's hard to sit still and write when there is so much to see. Rainy days indoors tend to work for my writing, and 6 months out of the year, it's winter in Canada, so ... that works well too. ;)<br /><br />The past 6 months have been awful with Covid, but we've had a glorious summer. It was difficult to write while outdoors enjoying my garden but so grateful for outdoor space. ;)Eden Bayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08043540142363106345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429560125838989988.post-32103400698405291322020-09-11T08:04:52.257+01:002020-09-11T08:04:52.257+01:00Thanks Eden, it was indeed a balm to my soul altho...Thanks Eden, it was indeed a balm to my soul although I got less work done on my novel than I would have liked.

What a great place to write, and getting away from the constant (bad) news will do your spirit good, no doubt. <br /><br />Enjoy your time. <br /><br />:)<br />eden<br /><br /><br /><br />Eden Bayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08043540142363106345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429560125838989988.post-13648591396611918282020-09-08T17:20:21.285+01:002020-09-08T17:20:21.285+01:00Thank you, Peter!

Smith’s work by chance and referred to her in a paper I wrote about Poetry and Song. Political poetry is hot again, she said in a NYT article. I also love KL where my daughter lived for a while and had her first baby there. Thanks for your peace messages and all the lovely nature pictures.Peter Leylandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07717370262319438102noreply@blogger.com
