After A Lot Of Experimentation….

I have had a long and checkered history with blogging. And with newsletters. I’ve been prolific. I’ve been sporadic. I’ve been consistent. I’ve been distant. And all the places in between.

But finally, finally(!), I have found a form that genuinely fits me.

And perhaps unsurprisingly, it’s not a form I’ve seen other people using. This form, my form, has come through trial and error and could only be described as bespoke – tailored to my own value set.

I’ll share a post soon on my values and how I integrate them into my life, my work, and my relationships (to others and to myself). But for now, I just want to draw attention to 2 of my core values: INTIMACY & DEPTH.

These 2 values are the bare bones of my approach to my blog and to my mailing list. I don’t enjoy writing “how to” posts. And I have very little connection to impersonal articles telling me what I “should” be doing. What I do love doing is writing about my own personal connection to the goddess in all her various forms. And I love writing poetic prose – words that lilt lyrically and feel beautiful to write, beautiful to read, beautiful to speak, beautiful to hear.

And so, you can consider the posts that you read here as invitations into intimacy. They’re always personal. They’re often poetic. They’re very occasionally prosaic. And they’re intended to be the conversation opener.

Newsletter subscribers will then receive a companion piece. This will be where the conversation becomes more intimate, more in depth. Imagine us in the booth of a restaurant, full wine glasses in hand, sharing those heart truths that spiral out of the simple everyday moments of our lives.

INTIMACY & DEPTH.

So, my lovelies, if you would like to continue the conversation with me, to take things to a deeper place of communion, then please do sign up for my newsletter. You can do that right here.

    Thank you for sharing this. I’ve been struggling with blogging & newsletter writing. I get stuck in the pressure to write something useful/educational and end up writing nothing at all and often feel like I have nothing of value to say (which I know isn’t really true).

    I don’t like all the blogging advice that says you should be doing certain things and your post must do certain things. It isn’t inspiring or helpful to me. Reading you words was finding someone that gets it. It is realizing that I’m not the only one who feels this way and that I really don’t have to try and fit into someone else’s blogging rules.

    Thank you for this. I’ve also felt I should be writing “how to” posts, yet they never came from my heart. It’s not what I wanted to write.

    I’ve always been drawn to posts that have intimacy and depth to them, that are very personal, that let me into someone’s heart. But I thought perhaps most don’t feel the way I do. Now I feel inspired to keep writing what comes through me naturally. Like you, one of my favorite things to write is my personal connection with the goddess.
