Looking together in the same direction.

Looking together in the same direction.
Sea otters hold hands while they sleep so they don't drift apart.

by my favorite poet, Mary Oliver

"Instructions for living a life.

Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

This blog is my Commonplace book.

A commonplace book is, therefore, essential for writers as it is a permanent bank of inspiration. If you keep a handwritten one, you've taken the effort to seek out the quote, idea or passage, write it out by hand and then refer back to it — so chances are, something resonated with you.

I like the thought of that.....a permanent bank of inspiration....a time-capsule.

Do you practice commonplacing?
