~ Can’t. Stop. Smiling ~
You see that blonde English woman over there? The one with the smile on her face and fluttering love hearts around her head, the one who can barely contain her excitement and gratitude? well, that's me that is. I'm so blown away by the incredible support this course has already had – from people signing up, to emails of encouragement, to fabulous write-ups online. Thank you so much! I can feel the energy of you all mixing with mine, and it's thrilling to see. This is the sort of course where what you put into it is what you'll get out of it, and i can already tell that it's going to be hugely dynamic as so many of the participants (Unravellers ? :) have already been in touch to tell me how ready they are for this sort of work. It's going to be (and I don't often use this word)… awesome!
There's still plenty of time to sign up if you're feeling up for a creative challenge and some soul work – please do email me if you have any questions or concerns and we can work it out: susannah [at] unravelling.co.uk

~ Field of dreams ~
The film was a couple of hours of uber fromage, starring Kevin Costner – who, quite frankly, was never my favourite actor – but the message of Field of Dreams has always stuck with me, and many others too: if you build it, they will come. For the last couple of weeks that is exactly what I've been doing, building a website and blog to house my dream…
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Unravelling: Ways of Seeing My Self – the e-course!
The course starts on Monday 16th February and will run for eight weeks, and I have to say I truly believe in this course and am really excited to share it with the world. For me this will also be another exercise in visibility, as I'll be posting weekly video posts to the course blog, so if nothing else, you'll get to see me in my natural habitat! As anyone who knows me will tell you, this is not something I would normally feel comfortable doing, but in the spirit of the course it feels like the right thing to do – as the course participants* unravel themselves, so will I. We're doing this together… Who wants to join me?
* The first 10 people who sign up for the course will receive a special 5×5 polaroid print from my Etsy store, as a thank you for joining me in my field of dreams :)

~ English design ~
Four fabulous English artists/designers: 1. Print by Olivia Jeffries 2. Fabric-covered notebooks by Summersville 3. Bespoke printed furniture by Zoe Murphy 4. Chick earrings by Joanna Rutter
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments about my *cough* nakedness. I guess I was quite a foxy chick back then, though one who was desperately insecure of herself and disguised that with a facade of mouthy confidence. I've lost touch with my foxiness a bit these last few years, though it's coming back, I swear it is. I saw a glimpse of it just the other day :)
Fingers crossed, I have something great to share with you tomorrow…

~ Life in squares ~
Two lovely things today: first, I'm very honoured to be a guest blogger over at Shutter Sisters, a photography site i simply adore. Thank you to Tracey and Karen for letting me loose on the page!
And secondly, I'm falling in love with Ane Brun this morning, a singer/songwriter from Norway. This beautiful song is working its magic in my heart.
