​Dragons everywhere
It​s the nearing the end year of the dragon and I'm a dragon and adore making dragons and writing about them as well!   In fact in my
Chronicles of the Wind Hound​ a seventh year Dragon has entered the Great Iron City, destroyed one of the great  pillars  of reverence  and has gone in search of 'The Hidden'. With a number of commissions for Dragons  on my books for March I am experimenting  madly with lustres and scales. If you take a look at the page: New Dragons you will see where I am heading exciting times!
On Monday I am working all day on 'Quests' ​ The search for the need for, the hoped for, the desired. Today I am searching for Moses Quest; The ability to part the Red Sea. We all at times in our lives search for our inner strength when our inner weaknesses are controlling us, I think that is true, certainly it is of me. I have been surprised ​to find out in my researches on Moses how unsure he was of his abilities to lead the Israelites  out of Egypt and into a New Promised land. I am looking into the Power of his Gesture's, with the holding of the rod up to the Mighty asking almost for guidance, and the  hand that reaches out to the sea. The clay feels strange in my hand as I make this Gesture.

​ Two very enjoyable workshops for storytelling in the past two weeks:
Midsummer at assington Suffolk. ​ Two day storytelling workshop with Shamanic elements  As always:  A lovely group of people came together for a 'reaching into ourselves' workshop to help find the individual voice. Thanks must go to Ann and Bob for their wonderful food and hospitality an and to Clare for being as amazing as ever with her supportive creative roll and those organisation skills.

​West Dean College:​One day beginners course for storytelling. Another amazing location. This is where Edward James lived and actively supported the surrealist Artists like Salvador Dali.  Like Assington, its an inspiring and beautiful place.
