Planting the Seeds
I’m here to share that my Kickstarter has reached its Goal. WOOHOO!!
What a warm and fuzzy feeling to know that my project will come to fruition, but here’s the thing it’s not over. I have 2 more weeks to get people on board the bus.
I have a secret to share, and I’m hoping it will inspire you to share my dream.
Most of us are familiar with the term “INNER CHILD” and how that young voice plays a role in our adult stories. Mine is about six, a shy, scared little girl. I can’t recall the memories or any particular incident, but the shame lives in my body. I have worked hard at accepting her as part of me. Embracing that we can rewrite the stories together. She gives me hope.
What is my dream?
That everyone embraces their stories. We need to get them on the page.
Writing is a powerful tool, and I am an example of how it has helped me find my voice.
That’s right!! That shy and scared girl has stepped out into the world, and I want to encourage others to do the same. My cast of characters card deck will surprise you and others. It’s a jumping-off point to discover something inside that wants to come out.
So here’s the other part of the dream. This deck is the first seed. The second seed is for me to be able to print enough decks to start having conversations with teachers to develop lesson plans and use the decks in classroom environments. Yes, it’s a dream, and I need your help.
I was getting my allergy shot the other day and trying to make conversation with my new best friend Jennifer (the nurse) I told her about the Kickstarter. She had never heard of one before. After I explained. She looked at me and said, “OH, that would be a perfect gift for my daughter’s teacher!”
