I think fragile eyesight has always made me very conscious of beauty in nature. The rhythm of the seasons and changing landscapes fascinate me. Since retiring following an accident I have enjoyed learning to look and see more clearly and then trying to express what I feel and see. Both being a member of Mungrisdale Writers and becoming a granny six times over in 8 years have accelerated this process and I am looking forward to perhaps publishing some of my writing which has so far been purely for me and the family. |
