I love the story about the poem rumbling over the landscape. I have poems that I'm not sure I should be taking credit for because they just came to me. None of them ever came out backwards on the page though.
And now, I'm off to visit my library and put her book, EAT, PRAY, LOVE on hold.
Oh hey, I have heard of her! Thanks for posting this, I look forward to watching it.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! Thanks for visiting my blog!
ReplyDeleteMyrna! Cool to find you! I was reading Emily Mortensen's blog, and saw your comments. Loved the video. I've heard about her book but was never inspired enough by the title to actually pick it up. However, I think I am now intrigued enough by HER to pick it up. Thanks for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Cinnamon! Thanks for taking the time to watch it!
ReplyDeleteCreativity from something divine. I'll buy that!
ReplyDeleteI can't say that I loved Eat, Pray, Love (at least not enough to pick up Committed), but it was intriguing watching her speak and made me like her better for it.
Thanks for sharing!
I loved that! I wasn't expecting her to be funny, but I laughed out loud. And she had some great things to say. I sure hope my genius isn't lame!
ReplyDeleteJackee, I haven't read anything by her (yet), but I loved the video.
ReplyDeleteSusan, the "your genius is kind of lame" made me laugh, too.
I absolutely loved her book and I can't wait to read the next one. Thank you for sharing this speech; it inspired me!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Catherine! It inspired me, too.
ReplyDeleteI'm so, so thrilled you liked this video. It changed everything for me. I hope you enjoy her book!
