I totally resonate... it’s why I created this Substack to give me a place, and sense of accountability, to be creative after the birth of my second baby in December!

I’ve got the book... I’ve read bits of it... I will admit to not managing a run of consistent morning pages but when I have done the creativity that has emerged has been really potent.

Maybe this is my sigh to get back to it!!! A writer on here wrote a really interesting piece about the book and motherhood... I will see if I can find it to share! Xx

I'm so thrilled this resonated with you... and I LOVED the piece you shared below! We give ourselves such a hard time as mothers if we're not doing everything perfectly (even our own creative practice) and it's just such a relief to know that I'm not the only one who jumps from one project to the next... and sometimes loses momentum just when it feels like the creative juices are flowing. Thank you again for reading my work x
