An Interview with Mary Reynolds Thompson, author of Reclaiming the Wild Soul
My introduction to Mary Reynolds Thompson came via Journalverse, a site devoted to journal writers and teachers, conceived and facilitated by my longtime friend and colleague, Kathleen Adams. Mary participated in an online seminar I did with Kay, and later we met in person at a Wild Women, Wild Voices writing workshop at Book Passage in Corte Madera. I love how these circles go around and around. (Thank you, Kay!)
I first used Mary’s book as a morning meditation guide, reading and working through some of the explorations, inspired by her beautiful language and imagery. But this won’t be the only time I read and use this guide. I’m looking forward to attending one of Mary’s Reclaiming the Wild Soul workshops somewhere in the wild, soulful world.
Following is a series of questions and answers Mary and I exchanged.
