“In this wan light, even trees seem groundless.
In a while it will be night, but nothing
Here seems to believe the relief of darkness.
You are in this time of the interim
Where everything seems withheld.
The path you took to get here has washed out;
The way forward is still concealed from you”

Excerpted from “For the Interim Time” By John O’Donohue

Ellie and Suzanne invite you to join us and Turtle Studios affiliates and friends on Sunday, January 10, 1-5pm, via Zoom.

We can make our creative ways into the new year together. Where have you been? What are you looking for?

We’ll begin with a gathering circle to check in, then make time to play and work with your materials; we will offer the tried-and-true tools of buddying, 1:1 coaching, scribing, doubt-catchers and more - as you choose. All to honor and clarify and make and have support doing it!

Affiliates $20

Friends of TS $30

Payable via Venmo to Suzanne @suzmcl

We will send you the zoom link, some suggestions on how to prepare do that the workshop will let a path unfold ahead.

Questions or to RSVP -

More from “For the Interim Time”

“The old is not old enough to have died away;
The new is still too young to be born."
You cannot lay claim to anything;
In this place of dusk,
Your eyes are blurred;
And there is no mirror.
Everyone else has lost sight of your heart
And you can see nowhere to put your trust;
You know you have to make your own way through.
As far as you can, hold your confidence.
Do not allow confusion to squander
This call which is loosening
Your roots in false ground,
That you might come free
From all you have outgrown.
What is being transfigured here in your mind,
And it is difficult and slow to become new.
The more faithfully you can endure here,
The more refined your heart will become
For your arrival in the new dawn.”
