Summer Camp

I’m just back from ….camp–in the Berkshires. I took a writing class with Catherine Ann Jones and an amazing group of people–a priest from Singapore, sacred and wild women, a documentary filmmaker from Panama, a wall street power broker/mother from India, a school teacher from England…..and so many amazing lovely thoughtful people from all over the world. I read four books, three magazines, and filled three perky spiral notebooks (three!) with words words words. I walked miles and ate heaps and heaps of delicious food and gained five pounds. I bought new pants to fit my whole new giant happy large self into and I came home laughing, calm, sweetened….richer.
I love being a student. I love being in summer school. I love seeing how much people can grow as writers in Five Short Perfect Days. I love watching teachers teach and learning how better to Be.
