A Writer's Inspiration

I read this book when my second and last child started kindergarten and I was wrestling between the idea of getting a job and fulfilling my life-long desire to write. Linda Weltner was a stay-at-home Mom like me, who wrote about her family and her life as a writer/homemaker. She made her life sound so attractive! She inspired me to write personal essays about my own family. In my book, DREAM WEAVING: USING DREAM GUIDANCE TO CREATE LIFE'S TAPESTRY, I wrote: "...when snow-filled streets kept me inside, reading ...the personal essays of Linda Weltner ... I realized that, throughout the years in which I'd nurtured my children, my soul was being fed by the wellspring of motherhood. The ideas I had culled from reading, journaling, and contemplation had been taking life in the dim recesses of my being, like the wintering roots of one of my perennial plants."
