june bootcamp

What do i want to be when i grow up? Mary and I are starting - tomorrow - a june bootcamp. we are bringing to the table all of the starts of our past projects. like sprouts in little black plastic containers. and we will sort through our potential garden and see what plants we'll take out of the containers, plant and nurture. or maybe we will take one plant out to put in soil. it doesn't really matter what the plant is. what the journey will be is one of a beginning, middle and end - all encapsulated in the month of june. or what is left of the month of june. should be fun!

off the top of my head i have one childrens' book and illustrations; a travel website and assorted essays that go into that; a light fiction story; some heavier meaning of life writings about going on retreat; letters to my daughters; essays about the different art works i have done; essays about walks down 18th street; and more.

i saw a character in a tv show last night or a movie it was go into his dorm room and shove all of his pile of studies off his desk and take out a pack of cards. what needs to get shoved off the table are all the extraneous activities that don't really matter or bring joy.
