A season of plenty
Friends gave us some of their extra bounty of vegetables this morning. I found myself looking up ideas for potatoes, carrots, romaine lettuce and strawberries. I thought of how an overabundance of produce put me right to work in order not to lose any precious food.
What if words came in overabundance now and then? Would we adjust our daily schedule and drop other activities to spend time using every precious word before we lost it? Would it energize our writing and make us downright feverish to get those stories told?
