Creative Notes

Today I looked at my Stats in a big picture way. I was interested and grateful to see again how readers visit from many countries.

I recently renewed my subscription as a Sponsor for the print journal, Time Of Singing. On the 2022 renewal form, Lora Homan Zill, Editor, noted that “Time Of Singing provides a high quality market for poets from all over the world.”

One of the favorite posts here continues to be Acrostic Poem for READING – from April 2010. This poem begins my page, Acrostic Poems by Ellen Grace Olinger.

Books and Connections

January 18, 2022 ·

This post follows my earlier post today, Bloganuary prompt for January 18, 2022.

I received my used paperback copy of Friends for the Journey, by Madeleine L’Engle and Luci Shaw – the book I wrote about in my post reading from books. This edition was published by Regent College Publishing in 2003.

Last year, I read A Journey of Sea and Stone: How Holy Places Guide and Renew Us, by Tracy Balzer, which is also a well-written and thoughtful book. You can learn more at her site, Tracy Balzer “carry some quiet around.”

Tracy Balzer begins her introduction to A Journey of Sea and Stone, Why Iona?, with honoring Friends for the Journey. Luci Shaw’s poem, “The Holiness of Iona” is a poem in Friends for the Journey. I remembered Luci’s poem, which helped me begin with Tracy’s book, which I plan to read again. Connections.
