Kate’s Turn:
Charise and
I are approaching our collaborative writing project from 2 different
perspectives. Charise is preferring to select favorites while I am looking for the
overall design; she sees the standouts while I see the patterns or themes. Of course, both are essential for
anything to have form – drops of water are what comprise an ocean; individual
threads are needed to weave a tapestry; individual flowers and plants create a
garden. And so together, from this
necessary dependency of sorts, we marry our contributions to create a new form,
greater than each of us could offer individually…at least, that is our
intention.
“There are two ways of being
creative. One can sing and dance. Or one can create an environment in which
singers and dancers flourish.”
