Nomad on Elmira Pond

Released online February 1, 2014
Pink mist gathers over the Selkirks behind Elmira Pond. It's that nebulous time of evening when the lace of dreams purl loops of possibilities around solid realities.When writers dream of word-crafting, galaxy-creating and books-gone-viral.

Elmira Pond has a visitor. A writer, a mist-dreamer, a published author car-camping her way through an emerging book career. A nomad.

CJ has crunched through winter wilderness snow and felt the sand on her feet in Nicaragua. The experience has melded with her inner journey as a writer and creative. She's penned a new release called, "Being Nomad--An Ebook by CJ Moi."

Now CJ has journeyed to Elmira Pond. Having another writer, and a cool nomadic one at that, on Elmira Pond makes me giddy. Just a couple of writers hanging out at the pond, watching the pink mist play.

So we decided to play, too. It's Sunday. Silly Sunday. So we present, Nomad on Elmira Pond, a series of footloose photos of thrift-store Uggs on ice. It's what all the hip nomadic writers wear in winter.

    Loved it. Tell Nomad she has wonderful 'feet'. :) And congratulations on her book. Two writers in one place -- must be marvelous!

      Nomad's feet are as adept as her writing! The energy is dynamic!

    I love the silly Sunday show of feet! How wonderful for you and CJ, Charli! It seems to me a couple of dreams are coming true - CJ and her nomadic writing dream and you with writers roosting at Elmira.

    ^ ^ Thanks all! Feet are important! Boots are important! You can read how a pair once saved my life in "Christmas Boots," included in the 20% of the book available for free viewing on Smashwords. ~ CJ

    Sorry that I missed this yesterday. I hit the hay a wee bit earlier than normal. I think Uggs are the most comfortable boots going. Congrats to CJ on her book!

      Sometimes you have to hit the hay early! I'll pass on the congrats to CJ (this is her first publication). Any tips from a sage and published author?

      Now you know we are trying to hide the real identity of Smurfette! I was pleased with the blue tones that came out with the almost-too-late-in-the-afternoon twilight. LOL

      CJ has good footwork (and penwork)! It was fun working those feet! :-) I was a bit tardy yesterday, but silly nonetheless!

    My boots are honored to be here at Elmira, and to play subject to the photography skills of the multi-talented Charli! And honored to be introduced to such a wonderful group here on this site. Warm fuzzies!! BTW the boots were such a find, brand new for $8 at the thrift shop last summer, woot woot. My feet have been living in them all winter, so grateful, but little did any of us know these humble Uggs would become celebrities, LOL.
