If You're Having Difficulty Coming Up With New Ideas, Then Slow Down. For Me, Slowing Down Has Been A Tremendous Source Of Creativity. It Has Allowed Me To Open Up -- To Know That There's Life Under The Earth And That I Have To Let It Come Through Me In A New Way. Creativity Exists In The Present Moment. You Can't Find It Anywhere Else.

One Poem Or Story Doesn't Matter One Way Or The Other. It's The Process Of Writing And Life That Matters.
