My creative space
Wow, that was a bit of an unscheduled break, but I’m back! Back in time for My Creative Space. This week I am making a couple of rabbits – one I am going to put up for auction with all proceeds going to the Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal, the other is for a trade I *still* owe for some of those fab vintage wall plaques. I have also been doing a little bit of writing, and still calling it a “learning experience”. 56,000 words is quite the learning experience.
Links I have been loving this week with regards to creativity:
* Elizabeth Gilbert talks about genius at the TED talks. LOVE this. Take the 20 minutes to enjoy it. (thanks Chelsea!)
* Writing and music, thoughts on writing by Haruki Murakami
* Daily Routines, “How writers, artists and other interesting people orgaize their days” (via don’t question me)
ALSO check out the latest issue of Frankie magazine for my contribution to the Meet Me At Mikes book – and get ready to buy your copy very soon for more such goodness (and much better resolution photos).
ALSO – I’m still loving Twitter. Please come and play along!
Stay tuned for bunny auction details. I hope to list her early next week.

Hey there Loobsta! As soon as I found out there was an article in Frankie relating to you I dashed out with my bub in tow and picked up a copy. As soon as I have settled down this evening after feeding the bub and preparing dinner I fully intend to sit down, relax and read up on your doll article and all the other great stuff in Frankie.

Thanks for sharing the links re writing and creativity. Aaron and I watched the Elizabeth Gilbert talk together-so articulate and inspiring. It was great timing. Keep well.

Wow! What a gift! Thanks Claire that was such a brilliant way to spend 20 minutes. It must have touched a nerve, I’m still trying to force down the lump in my throat. Bravo!

Gorgeous bunny softie!!! THANK you sooooo much for the link to the Elizabeth Gilbert talk. I was one of the many, many people who LOVED Eat, Pray, Love; and I really found her talk thought provoking and reassuring.
I’m glad I found your blog, I’ll be back!

hey, did I miss something, did you actually get those wall plaques? If so, I’m very jealous. Looks like that little softie is making some big bucks for the appeal, well done!
