The Productive Writer is receptive. She pays attention. She sees herself in her world and her world in herself. She learns the names of things and invents the names of others. She is both seeking and satisfied, grounded at center and trained to the peripheries. With clarity and intention, she filters the steady swirl of sensory, interpersonal, and media information through the unique filter of her pen and page.She makes connections, records the resonance between known and believed. Collector of shells, scribe to wonder, she hones herself to a single star, both breathing in and giving off light.
Sage Cohen, The Productive Writer
