Thanks so much, Kay! You really assured me about the word! I also love poetry and used to write poems when I was a teenager and I still do it occasionally.

I love your description on Shyeling, and of course, she is concerned when writing poetry too!

Thanks so much, Cheryl! Your comment brightened my day!

Blog posts are also a writing practice to me, and I often define the goals for the post first, so that I don’t ramble too much. This time, I wanted to both inspire to create and connect with all who want their art to develop to a deeper direction as naturally as possible. Natural is very important to me, I don’t believe in forcing the creativity, and I also think that creating feels best when we can find the most natural ways to do it.

Thank you, Jakki! It’s a bit risky for me to invent new words in English because I don’t fully master the language, but I got the idea from Changeling and Jasmine Beckett-Griffith’s Strangeling. I think there’s also the word “tenderling”.

Thanks, Kathleen!!

Thank you, Päivi, kiitos!

Thanks so much, Sue!!
