Giving the work of love
Replied Oct. 29, 2008
Lili's Page
Profile Information
- Why I'm choosing to give:
- Because I've been too focused on my own misfortunes and I want to open up and become more connected to everything and everyone.
- What I'd most like to receive:
- Love, connection, creative expression, abundance and support in embarking upon this new chapter of my life after greatly changed circumstances. I would be grateful for marketing/business advice in setting up my creative writing workshop and retreat business. If the universe sends an extraordinary, smart, handsome, irreverent, creative man my way, that would be lovely too. I promise to use whatever comes to me to generate more love and well-being to send back out into the world.
- How did you hear about the 29-Day Giving Challenge?
- from a friend
- About me:
- I'm a thirty-something artist/writer/actress who grew up partly in Israel, partly in US. It's important to me to do work that connects people to each other and to the planet, across boundaries and borders. Love to create beautiful spaces for living and community, as well as painting, making jewelry, and writing fiction, poetry, plays with kids and adults as well as on my own. I can offer design advice and DIY suggestions as well as actual things, and I love to cook healthy, yummy food, brainstorm, organize spaces, and edit manuscripts too.
- Do you agree to read and follow the 29Gifts Code of Conduct once you join our site?
- yes!

I'm just catching up from the past couple of days on responding to comments and I got to reading your blog posts from the beginning (which I hadn't gotten to do before). I've gotta tell you how very much I enjoy your writing style. And most of all, I am so loving the way you've been doing this 29 Days thing on so many levels... physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually. So many breakthroughs and energetic releases! How inspirational. You're putting out lots of good energy into this world. Keep on shining that light, woman! Lots of love and blessings to you - Serena
It was good to meet you, and I hope the hypnosis (or whatever feels right to you) will be easy for you to do in this neck of the woods. I live at 1468 La Playa Street, apt. 2. You push 02 at the door. So, just whenever you want to do a session, let me know through here, or my email, flameflower@runbox.com. (Always helps not to have to find paper things in the new piles, eh?) I can do things like stopping smoking sessions, but tend to go into deeper subjects with hypnosis. Past life regressions have been something a lot of people have come to me for, and we've discovered some amazing things that cleared a lot of things up. Though the card says 45 minutes, when it comes to hypnosis, we really go until it's time to quit.
The world of academia is familiar to me more than it might seem because my ex husband is the head of the MFA program in Memphis. And at other schools where he taught, we were the ones who put up the visiting writers, showed them around, and such. Even as a freshman, my social life was the receptions at the readings. Then, I taught for six years.
It's been something on my mind a lot lately, and part of my way of working into whatever teaching means comes my way is my promotion of a genre I call Lucid Fiction in my articles, interviews, and such, and there are lots more things about that waiting in the wings to be published. I'm hoping to run a contest for lucid fiction, maybe even before a book is accepted, just based on my journal publication experience.
I don't know if there is going to be any networking we can do our our kindred quest for teaching possibilities, and the overall world of writing in San Francisco, but if anything comes up that sparks anything for either of us, we can keep our ears out. If you want to tell me anything specific that you're looking for along those lines, now, or later, I'll see what comes my way to pass along to you.
Hugs.
This is late notice, but would love to have you the meet up THIS Sunday, where Cami, the 29Gifts founder, will be joining us for a group give. Details and RSVP here.
Also, if you haven't already, please join the Bay Area 29Gifters Group!
