New Post on Keri Smith's Living Out Loud

It is about time I added a new post.

I have been working on a number of projects but my update is about the Keri Smiths book I recently bought, Living Out Loud. I have done a number of tasks in her book, mostly writing tasks opposed to the usual draw something and destroy it project. Anyway, one of the tasks is writing down what would you like to see yourself as (my summary of it, I don't want to give too much away). Some of the questions needed some thought but I answered them all, quite an interesting quest I thought, some of the questions are about what do you want to do in your life but mostly makes you think about it in a different perspective as if you were living it. Goal setting I suppose but thinking big. One of the questions is seeing yourself in a house, what would it be like.

Another project, is writing 100 things you can do with a pencil, I changed mine to pen, by accident. It is a great exercise and makes you think outside the box.

Some fun things I have yet to do is paint pebbles and create my own sanctuary, wine and dine myself and so on. There are a few things that require cutting and building but I can't bring myself to do it because it is such a lovely book and wrecking it besides I currently do not have my own space to hide it so the kids don't destroy it. There are stickers too.

So all in all I am busy doing stuff, fun stuff included and work stuff too.

All in all it is a great book. A little different from her usual work but well worth purchasing.
