Quiet Time Over~

Quiet time has been full of fun and change. I have already created a schedule of writing for myself, and personal photography projects. But most of all, the one thing that will be occupying and keeping my days busy will be the puppies at Wolf Hollow, Ipswich. How is this possible, you may wonder, when I trek to Ipswich only once a week? Well, that is just the beginning.

The puppies are growing like weeds, but the cutest weeds in the world. It is so strange to see how much they have changed from the car ride until now, and I cannot wait to photograph them this coming weekend. I hope to create some comparison panels over the next few weeks to show development as they grow and mature. The puppies not only occupy my time with photography, trying to capture their development, their essence and personality, but my writing as well. It has come to my create attention that my writing need not just be influenced by what I already know will be set in stone for my plans ahead, but what the puppies are showing me now.

As they grow, they learn, and to put it plainly, they are teaching me and giving me information more valuable than any book or website.

Writing from life is a gift, and I plan to use this gift wisely when personifying the characters in my work.

Here are some photos you will surely enjoy. These are photos taken by me from my phone (as I plan to do a mass upload of some high res. Photos once I gather some more this weekend) for comparison of growth. Enjoy!
