A Deer, the Swan Mountains, and a Little Magic
When I was in Montana this last week, I looked out at the Swan Mountains and a curious deer in the middle of a trail and somehow those mountains and that deer told me – a writer fighting burnout – that I needed to add a little magical realism to the book I’m writing.
I do not argue with the Swan Mountains or deer, so I dropped in a little magic and the burnout faded away a bit…
Sometimes ya just gotta go to Montana so you can think.
