Set In Motion

A memoir in journal entries, letters, and poems. It begins with a chance encounter between the author, a poet, as a young woman returning from Europe, and a sympathetic "soul-brother," Pastor Ian MacKenzie. The pastor raises the question. "What is writing for?" that stays in the author's mind from then on. When the two meet again after 40 years, they renew friendship and exchange letters. The original encounter spirals into a memoir spanning the lives of the poet and the pastor, touching not only on writing but also on intuitions, present and past lives, yoga, tarot cards, and other realms of the Spirit that map their souls.
