I am delighted to launch this new website julene.io. It is meant to be a perspective on myself that includes the many things I am interested in deeply. There have been so many things that have captured my interest over the years.
But for most of the last thirty years I have been focused upon family and my career. My left-brain career. I have gotten so much enjoyment from it and the amazing, brilliant and talented people I have met through my activities. And, it has been an opportunity for me to exercise my creativity in support of my profession and the people it serves.
The career is taking me to broader and more interesting horizons. But, I am determined not to leave my painting and writing behind again. Although yoga has made me feel youthful and gives me more energy than ever, I know I have only so long to create in all areas of my life. So, I have been painting when I can and my joy when I paint is transcendent.
Writing is also something I neglected for so many years, except for business writing, which is not the same thing for me. I am delighted to have taken several of Spike Gilliespie's workshops. http://meditationkicksass.tumblr.com. Spike is a true blogging inspiration! I am also working with an amazing critique partner on my novel. I am about 120 pages away from my first draft I believe.
More to come in my journal about my personal journey.
