Fishing from the Boat Ramp - A Guide to Creating

Foreword by Joy Cowley

Many people have rejected old religious structures that have no meaning for them, and have begun a search for authentic experience that will satisfy spiritual hunger.  Creativity in all its forms - social, artistic, domestic - tends to take the creator beyond the personal and into the great heart of creation where there is an experience of the interconnectedness of all things.  But there is not much written about this procesa, at least, not much written in language we can all relate to.  It takes a special kind of talent to take the mystical, and present it in a form that is as simple and delicious as bread and butter pudding.

In Fishing from the Boat Ramp Jillian Sullivan has done just this.

While tasting Gewurztraminer in a vineyard, she meets Godfrey in gumboots and jeans.  'Twenty-three point six," says Godfrey.  "It's going to be a good wine."

And so begins a dialogue between a writer and Godfrey, everyday chats about writing, gardening, art, life, boats and sea and oh yes, ice-cream.

Fishing from the Boat Ramp is not a religious book.  It's a book of soul wisdom for everyone who has a bit of artist in them.  Godfrey's advice: "Sometimes, just don't do anything.  That's passion as well - the passion of the empty mind.  Let it be empty.  That's when you have the joy of filling it up again."
This book is packed full of comfort, handy hints, truth, wisdom, lovely scenery, and the glorious freedom of being.
