Creative origin--absolutely the sunny, wood-floored public library of my childhood--where I read and reread favorite books and dreamed of adventures and writing stories.<br /><br />And the places that help me learn to be creative and playful--at least two immediately come to mind. Writing my daily poetry site, which keeps creativity fresh and on the move, and twice a year weekend getaways with a group of old, old friends--none of them even like poetry, but encourage me anyway--But the truly odd timing is this--I just returned from one of those weekends and posted a quickly written poem titled Oasis. Then checked in on the Storialist, as I like to do each morning, and read this post and your own--vastly different and lovely but identically titled poem, Oasis. Oh, this creativity thing--it's out there and sometimes makes me shiver at how it shows itself, as if people on opposite sides of an ocean both dipped their toes in at the same time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171487865623213768.post-3003814736290822142014-10-19T16:40:13.679-04:002014-10-19T16:40:13.679-04:00I might be a bit late to enter but my place of cre...I might be a bit late to enter but my place of creative origin are places where the weather or the human hand has shown it's influence. From the rust on the side of warehouse to the tools in a woodworking studio, I am entranced. There is something about the worn objects in these spaces that gets me thinking about making something to celebrate their textures.Vanessahttp://www.adropofwonderstudio.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6171487865623213768.post-29685815250590713592014-10-17T10:16:35.385-04:002014-10-17T10:16:35.385-04:00These are great.

Love the collaboration between the two of you.<br /><br />My places of creative origin: books and spaces filled with art and music.<br /><br />Places that have helped me learn to be creative and playful: TweetSpeak Poetry and Twitter (where we hold poetry jams).Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290283101378474845noreply@blogger.com
