While I've mentioned liking big cities in my blog, I grew up in a small town. The story I'm writing has it's origins from when I used to explore the woods and fields behind my parents house. When I was a teen, I used to meditate on a fallen tree that acted like a bridge over a small stream behind the house (an activity that I describe my main character doing in my book). It's why I continue to explore places off the main roads and like to learn about places that not many people are aware exist.
There is an energy in the woods. It's very peaceful and welcoming. It's a place where I can clear my head, or think about things that interest me. It's a part that I don't normally share with other people because I fear they may find it boring. It's nice to hear of someone else who can also appreciate the beauty of nature.
Definitely not alone.
