introduction

Writer: CassandraCassandra

I've always loved writing, but I've also always struggled with that first blank page. So here it is, the first blank page!


Next week I'll be starting a grant funded period of writing, the first I've ever done. The Saskatchewan Arts Board has graciously funded me to dedicate my time to composing for a full month from July 17 - August 17, which naturally elicits from me a reaction of pure joy and pride, and deep fear and despair. Thankfully the process of applying for the grant itself was incredibly thorough, so I now conveniently have such helpful tools as a detailed timeline, and lots of descriptive words about what I intend to use the funding for to both keep me on track, and to make me feel guilty for not being further along in my work...


Anyway! This blog is going to be a spot for me to write about my creative process, share about some of the tools I'm using, discuss challenges, and likely write about unrelated and somewhat esoteric trains of thought.


Welcome, and thanks for stopping by. ^_^

The background photos on this website were taken by my good friend Elizabeth Bekolay from "After the Burn", a photoessay that illustrates the ecological difference between forest fires and standard clear-cut logging practices. 

Elizabeth is an Ecologist, Educator, and Artist who grew up in the Boreal Forest and now resides in Saskatoon, spending her days studying the remaining 3% of North America's Native Prairie Ecosystems. Her small business, Lichen Nature, helps people to become stewards of their yards and farms by creating habitat for the species that need it most, and bio-diverse foods for humans too.
