#DREWBARRYMOREBLOG...It is live and ready to read! These are a few stories for the first round and more to come. I have always romanticized blogs. It was also an amazing new budding art form of human expression after one of the most difficult times in our world. When everything dramatically changes, the normal routine is forced to stop and almost a new life comes into focus. Our time is shifted into new areas. Life as we know it goes into a hibernation. Then...new things bloom. The reorganizing of how we spend our day can actually make space for new  creations. It didn’t have room before in our busy distracted overfilled life. But today I am going to get my JULIE AND JULIA on! I have found the place to let new embers burn inside me, the same ones that were extinguished with daily running to get it all done, and be left with very little in the tank. 

Please read knowing I am rebellious to grammar. I try to write as I feel the cadence how my head hears it and my heart feels it! There is no chronology. It is not the way we remember things. Memories are a shuffled deck in no order. But to journal in this unprecedented time, well it is a way to make sense of it. Be reflective about my life as a whole. This is a global collective moment. I want to have record of it. But I want to make it personal. It’s the only way I know how to do things. 

Anyone who finds themselves here, I write for you. Thank you for hanging out and I am sending my very best to you as well! I hope to help you escape, relate or reflect! There is no greater thing than to write! I feel lucky to get back to it. I haven’t written anything since my last book. I had no way to sit down and do it. I was frozen. I was in a massive transition. Dramatic life changes. And it took a long time to make sense. But like life right now, things look so bleak you have to fight for the sun. And in nature it is dark and hidden until it springs and blooms. I can see the light. I can see the hope. I can see all our new superhero’s. And I just know incredible things will come out of this. But there will days that will be tested with unknown moments which will extend uncertainty. And so I write again...trying to fit right in with everyone in this collective experience. Because we are all in this together. And for that, I am grateful.
