I find that clearing the slate so that I can start clean is a huge step in my work as a writer. Though I am working on the same projects, all the images and ghosts from old, completed ones must be set free.\u00c2\u00a0 Every piece of my work is like\u00c2\u00a0my child, both the published and the unpublished pieces, and each of those children has to be released so that I can give my time, energy and focus to the new ones. Every piece I&#8217;ve ever written lives in me still, and always will. So I suppose the ritual of walking the labyrinth this Friday night will be more about releasing myself, giving myself permission to walk on, to take the next steps on the path I am meant to walk.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cosepiscopal.com\/Labyrinth.htm\">http:\/\/www.cosepiscopal.com\/Labyrinth.htm<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year I plan to walk the labyrinth at the Church of the Servant in Wilmington, NC to release the old year with all its gifts and challenges, while welcoming the new one.
