So pleased to hear this Linda, thank you !

[Lucinda Bain]

I found myself writing down words while I was reading your answers, Sally: cosmos, Earth-centric, extra-terrestrial, ecological, nurture. Your answers were truly medatative. Thank you for sharing this interview Julie, and to Sally for being so generous with your responses.

[The Morning Chirp]

Sally, I liked that you mentioned the potential for nature writing. The genre has so many applications in so many different sub-genres, like fictional writing, as you mentioned. It opens up writing about nature to one's imagination.

[Sally Gillespie]

Thank you, yes its a wonderful stretch to explore the ways all writing could become Earth-centric at its foundations

[Julie Gabrielli]

Stories create worlds.

[Sally Gillespie]

Hello Sally, I loved reading ‘your story’ and learning a little about why you write. Two bits of wisdom I hold on to from your newsletter are - plant seeds and carry babies. You have so much to teach us, thank you 🙏
