Drawing with Christopher Robin — Episode 2
Putting some ink and blood on paper
Lots on my mind today and I’m tired of trying to fit it into one coherent article. Instead, today you get the pleasure of a stream of consciousness. Aren’t you excited? Let’s begin!
I’m drawing as I write this, so I’ll show you my progress as we go. I started by making some lines and stuff. Here’s where it begins:
I’m going dark for the weekend. The annual trip with the guys is a way to hide in the woods for 4 days with nothing at all to do, and we’ll finally get to catch up. All four of us with divergent lives, but we grew up together, so things fall back into place when we meet once a year in the wilderness of Tennessee.
This year will be different with me not drinking. The others will be, and this makes me a bit anxious, but I’m on my own journey, not theirs. If it goes sideways, I’ll disappear with a notebook and write about my problems.
Speaking of…
Should you write about your problems?
