Janice MacLeod's Blog, page 6

Thought I’d share a Typewriter Letter I mailed out to subscribers… edited for worldwide consumption, typos, and reconfigured for a blog post with pictures. When I start writing, I’m not sure where I’m going.

Writing on a typewriter is a little like driving a car that is being steered by a kid with a remote control joystick. 

If you or someone you know would like fun mail like this, go to my shop.

And now, the letter…

“Dear Galen,

Nostalgia week. Started last Thursday with a message from Sean that he would be passing through on his road trip to or from Toronto. Not sure when exactly. I’m told I will be informed upon approach. One of those put-another-dog-on-the-barbie situations.

We met at work in Toronto. I was smitten and he was definitely not. I was basically smitten with anyone paying me the least amount of attention back then. I was boy crazy and single. He was single but not crazy. He had a wisdom I did not possess. He could see ahead when I couldn’t see much further than my daydreams and fantasies.

Anyway, we both loved coffee break so we started going out together for coffee. Soon we were getting lunch together and eventually we went to the bar after work to watch the hockey game every other day. All this never turned into anything remotely romantic so simmer down if that’s what you’re thinking. But we talked a lot about photography, travel, and especially road trips.

When my contract in Toronto ended, I returned to Los Angeles and wrote for the Auto Club. Imagine my delight at being able to study road trips of the American West DURING my day job. I collected a lot of maps. Sean showed up whenever he had a week to fly down. I would fetch him at the airport and off we would go… anywhere between LA and Vegas. All that fantastic faded desert. Neon signs that hadn’t been lit for decades, Joshua trees seemingly swaying and dancing on the horizon, and someone by my side who didn’t great my nerves.

The art of finding a decent travel companion in this life is a gift. The travel companion gets put into the same category as friends, but a decent travel companion requires a whole other skill set. Much needs to be either the same or at least compatible. The biggest factors are about how you both want to spend your time and money.

If we are staying at a fancy hotel and going to a fancy brunch after a long sleep in… go find yourself someone else. A cheap motel that is basically a 5 star 3 star… clean, safe and close to the things… perfect. A diner for coffee and eggs, and fast so we can get seeing what we came to see. Now we are talking. Even bathroom breaks need to be somewhat compatible. If you can’t pee… wherever… go to the resort without me.

So Sean. We are compatible in all these ways. I will put up with his fast food as long as he can deal with my need for a 5 star 3 star hotel… a shade below Best Western is fine. We went to the Salton Sea and took hundreds of photos. On two trips, he loaded the film wrong and had no shots to show for it. I was digital by then. Still only ever printed a few shots. Some places are gorgeous in their desolation and some places are just too ugly. We had stopped at a beach. Looked like a fine dot on the map where we could stretch our legs and rest our driving eyes. Got out of the car, walked to the water, realized we were not walking on sand but on a foot-thick heap of dead fish at various stages of decay. Back in the car. We both couldn’t speak for an hour. Didn’t get any shots either, for obvious reasons.

He likes to find old trucks in front of interesting buildings. I like the details… hood ornaments, shadows.

He takes forever to set up his shot. A tripod is involved. So I meander around, finding broken dishes in the nooks and crannies and wonder about who bought them and how the dishes came to be part of the detritus of desert towns.

He said once that he hoped heaven had good coffee and a lot of ugly places to photograph. He loves to take a beautiful photo of something that isn’t considered beautiful… or even noticed by most people. He loves a parking lot. I love a tangle of telephone poles. It works. We seem to find what we are looking for. And sometimes, what we are not looking for.

He will be here next week. Surely, my small town is too pretty for his fickle needs. We will likely meander to the outer edges. I am sure we will find something, even if it is just good company.

Janice

Covid came to town. Not just my town. Yours, too. Our province stopped contract tracing, limited testing, and told everyone, if you’ve got ANYTHING, stay home.

It’s winter in Canada, so totally doable.

Everything is closed anyway. Including schools. crowd groan

We have online learning for my little kindergarten student here in the household. I marvel at the tech learning happening for these 4 year olds. We didn’t even get a VCR until I was in high school. With a child at home, everything closed, winter on the doorstep and nowhere to go, one might think we are going stir crazy.

There are moments. 

Sometimes I look over my living room and kitchen and think, “Haven’t seen ANYTHING ELSE but THIS.” I slump a little. And it takes a little longer to pull my chin up.

Chin up… life skill. 

Being able to see gifts, pivot, and calm down in all this is a challenge, especially when there are so many messes to clean up. For many of us (especially women), it’s not the tragedies that destroy us, it’s the messes. How many counters have we wiped? How many things have we picked up?

The mind can be a scattered mess. Our bodies are healing from this and that, but how long will it take our brains to get back on track? I’ve sat down to write a blog post a dozen times and forgot why I sat down the moment I turned on the computer.

I can’t even remember my New Year’s resolutions.

And I’m kind of the poster child for New Year’s resolutions working out. Keen observers will notice that all three of my Paris books start in January.

Then these glorious gifts showed up:

1. For book writers: Danielle Steele typing on her typewriter

(Clicking the image will take you to Instagram.) She has written her books with a 1946 Olympia manual typewriter, which she named Ollie.

“I paid $20 for it a million years ago, at the beginning of my career, in a second hand typewriter store. And I love it.”

As I navigate writing with a typewriter, I’m learning that writers who use typewriters spend their time staring at keyboards while writers of the computer age stare at the screen. Looking just at the keyboard seems to keep one thought stringing along. Words you wrote five words ago are in the past. You only concentrate on the moment. It’s almost like a meditation. Try it with your computer keyboard. You write differently.

With a typewriter, you might not TYPE better, but you might WRITE better.

2. With Joan Didion hightailing it to glory recently, I’ve been reading up on her writing process. (the link takes you to an article so littered with ads its ridiculous.)

She said she doesn’t write novels or screenplays or articles. She writes sentences. Don’t think about the whole thing, just write one sentence, then another, then another.

I suppose that could be the New Year’s resolution. It’s easier to do when you stare at the keyboard and don’t let yourself get distracted by incessant content.

Speaking of content…

3. My new Etsy shop filled with notebooks.

During this time of online school, when I have to be within earshot of the other computer to MUTE and UNMUTE and “Look for things that start with the letter L,” etc… I created another Etsy shop full of notebooks. It was once where I housed digital printables, but someone tried to sell the digital printables and I had to throw down a world of hate so… no more printables. People who copy your stuff are just pickpockets. LOATHE. evil eyes

Rant over. Here are more pretty notebooks:

In Pantone’s Veri Peri purple colour of the year for 2022, aimed to “encourage personal inventiveness and creativity.” Sure. That’s about right.

Admittedly, this CONTENT notebook includes a bit of a giggle laced with bitterness since all writers these days are being asked to be “content providers.” Ugh. Why don’t you just take ALL the romance out of it? But if you read it differently, you can remember to calm the heck down whenever you pick up your notebook. CONtent or conTENT. Win win.

Plus flower, lemons and typewriters because… FUN.

The idea for the notebooks sprouted as part of a New Year’s  thought process.

What if I had all the money, time, energy already to do whatever I want to do?

Which is another version of this harsher reality:

What if I’m stuck at home with a pandemic, small child, shift work husband, and winter? 

I’d have a stationery shop full of pretty paper supplies. To list an item on Etsy, you pay about 25 cents (depending on your country) so you don’t even need much to get that dream happening.

I also updated the usual Etsy shop where I house all my Paris Letters, Typewriter Letters, and art. I reduced the price of letters so I could fold them rather than send them flat. This means you save on shipping, but more importantly, I can pop them in the mailbox in front of my house rather than trek out to the post office every other day risking the lives of me who is recovering from surgery (nothing to be alarmed by, TG!), but especially for my child who is too young for a vaccine. Win win.

Plus, my car has three snowstorms worth of ice layered on it, so… there’s that. We even lost electricity during one storm, but fear not… manual typewriter steps up to the helm. YES.

Typewriter Letters are heading out every week. Writing sentences. One sentence, then another, then another. Just like Joan.

PS If you have a writerly New Year’s resolution like to write a book, organize your journals, or get better at writing, check out my online writing courses.

What do you do when you have a mostly blank day book from 2020? Make an art journal, of course!

The video of the big reveal is over at my YouTube channel. Subscribe if you dare. But below are the pages…

On with the show!

A few bits and bobs from various French ephemera, plus a page from A Year in Provence by Peter Mayle… book had already been falling apart in the thrift store where I found it. HOT TIP: Get beat up copies of your favourite books from thrift stores to use in your art collages and keep the good copies on your shelf.

Christophe and I when we lived in Calgary… brrrr.

That Arc de Triomphe made its way into DEAR PARIS. The quote is from Memoirs of Montparnasse by John Glassco.

My apartment is right under that Boucherie sign in the back.

Bits and pieces from here and there.

I created a letter with this handsome fella. It is in DEAR PARIS. Actually, this is a guy that was just sitting on a bench waiting for a bus or taking a breather or thinking deep thoughts. Or all the above. He was handsome enough to recreate with paint and ink.

Bits of pieces of books that fell apart, plus energetic scribbles from heir to the throne.

Ciggies and perfume. French chicks. Pft.

The only way I know how to create something with a sewing pattern.

A strong enough ending.

PS Buy DEAR PARIS for those on your Christmas list instead of a planner for 2022. Clearly, a planner isn’t always a good idea.

 

There is always that moment in an artist’s life when she thinks one of two things:

“Should I make a podcast out of this?”

OR…

“Should I make an online course out of this?”

There was a time I wanted to do a podcast, then I recorded the audiobook for Dear Paris and decided “NO FRIGGIN WAY.” I tripped over every third word. Not my strength.

However, I have found a certain glee and aptitude with creating online writing courses. If you think you might want to tackle creating a course yourself, here are three tools I recommend in my free ecourse on ecourses.

TOOL 1: Organizing Content

Turn your mess of pages into something glorious… like money.

Organizing Content is great for getting your head around all your ideas. You’ll learn how to quickly sift through your material, organize it, and FINISH a project. And it is hosted by me so it will be like having a friendly bossy pants on your side.

 

TOOL 2: Leonie Dawson’s course on making an ecourse.

She knows all the things.

You may wonder why I recommend an ecourse on creating ecourse when I already have my own FOR FREE. Because my course is all about WHAT I HAVE LEARNED about building ecourses, while her course explains ALL DIFFERENT WAYS to build an ecourse. Leonie has more answers to more questions. There are tech and marketing questions that come up when you build a course online and she is NEVER stumped.

Plus, with all her live calls (recorded so you can watch later), you learn from what she teaches others who are already creating ecourses.

If my Organizing Content course helps you WRITE the thing, her course helps you MAKE IT GO so you can start selling and making money fast. 

If it weren’t for Leonie’s courses, I would still be futzing around researching the best way to sell my courses.

She saved me so much time. I’ve taken it found it useful, lucrative, and amusing. AND, I made all my money back.

TOOL 3: The learning platform Kajabi

I use Kajabi to host my online courses because it has helpful video tutorials, which this brain needs to learn the lesson. It also has gorgeous templates so you can quickly get courses up and running fast and start making cash. You save 20% on any plan with annual billing. Plus, usually you get a free trial so you can try it first. Get the trial so you can see if you like how it works.

Again, the three tools for creating your own online course:

In my previous email, my subject line said 25% off instead of the actual sale of 20% off. Sorry about that. I’ve been looking around for someone to blame but I’m the only one in the room.

Once I learned of the error, I thought, “Ya, 25% is better and more fun.”

We all have a narrative mind jogging alongside us in daily life.

Chatterboxes who are introverts have strong narrative minds.

Who said that?

Exactly.

Those words have to go somewhere and if you’re spending vast amounts of time talking inside your own head, putting some of those words on the page might be a good idea. Something might come of it. Or not. Sometimes just getting them out is enough to keep you sane.

A friend recently remarked how she wished her narrative mind would stop swirling, stop keeping her up at night.

I told her of the time my narrative mind shut off during a time of great illness, when my body was too busy to be thinking poetic thoughts.

I read recently that a side effect of the pandemic is hair loss… great big gobs of hair falling out around the globe. Sure, it is happening with those who have COVID. The body is too busy to nourish superfluous hair follicles so the hair falls out. The weird bit is that those who don’t get COVID are experiencing hair loss as well. WHY ARE WE NOT TALKING ABOUT THIS?!

The article states:

One type of loss is responsible for the pandemic hair-loss spike: telogen effluvium. TE, as it’s often called, is sudden and can be dramatic. It’s caused by the ordinary traumas of human existence in all of their hideous variety. Any kind of intense physical or emotional stress can push as much as 70 percent of your hair into the “telogen” phase of its growth cycle, which halts those strands’ growth and disconnects them from their blood supply in order to conserve resources for more essential bodily processes. That, in time, knocks them straight off your head.

The ORDINARY TRAUMA of the pandemic is piled onto lives that might already be running on adrenaline and caffeine. And our hair takes the brunt of it. Just as well we were in lockdown. Serious bad hair days for all of us.

TE so common I don’t know why we aren’t talking about it as a regular thing. 

My husband lost all his hair after a significant death in his family.My friend lost great gobs of the stuff while going through fertility treatments.Another friend lost handfuls of hair after childbirth.My sister lost hair while I went through chemo treatments (where I also lost my hair but that was because of the chemo killing all rapidly dividing cells, healthy and cancerous, and not due to TE).

Four examples from my inner circle clearly experiencing TE, something you probably haven’t heard of before. And what was the solution? Incessant search for products to cure it. Throw money at it. Only time and distance from the trauma, it seems, cures TE. The hair came back… eventually.

What does this have to do with the narrative mind? 

In addition to hair loss, ORDINARY TRAUMA can shut down the narrative mind. We berate ourselves for not writing through dark times, having been told by writing coaches that this is all rich material we can use later.

And I say to that: Later is probably a better time to write it all down. Now might not be the time.

In dealing with the ordinary traumas in life, my journal entries change. Instead of writing about my FEELINGS (bla bla bad who cares), I record the events of the day. This is also what I do when I am traveling. I list the details to remember them later, from the song playing at the airport lounge, to the man feeding pigeons at the Pantheon in Rome.

This is from the latest Typewriter Letter… a two pager from a glorious 1947 Royal stallion of a typewriter. This is from Page 2…

When you are traveling, your reading material is maps and guide books. When you’re in ordinary trauma, your writing material is more reporting, less feeling. You’re too close to the situation. Only time and distance can lure the narrative mind to work through it all later once the dust settles.

So if your narrative mind has left, or if your hair is thinning, now might be a good time to report on the events of the day through lists in your journal… and scrounge around for a hat.

PS Those Typewriter Letters are over at my shop. They are extra stampy this week:

Last summer I signed up for an ecourse on making ecourses.

I thought it was so funny to tell people “I’m taking an ecourse on making ecourses.” It’s not even that funny now, but I was in the middle of a lockdown with the hubs and a preschooler, so I was a bit on edge.

Looking back, one wonders how much coffee played a part. 

Anywho… ecourses.

I remember the first day of class…. Peppa Pig was playing (again) on the TV but I had my earphones in, I was logged on, pencils sharpened, and clicked Begin Course. Lesson 1, lesson 2, lesson 3… taking notes, filling out worksheets, watching videos.

It was all so FUN inside the private world of my earphones and printable PDFs. 

Around me was the chaos of summer in lockdown with a young kid, but all I felt was the peace that comes with finally figuring out how to give myself something GOOD for ME. Midway through the lessons it dawned on me:

Making ecourses could be… FUN. 

No ecourse experts ever said this. They all go on about making money and the best microphones to use, but I thought if I was having fun taking an ecourse, it might be fun making an ecourse as well.

As you know, because I’ve mentioned it a few times, I went ahead and made three writing ecourses.

It was a little stressful to figure out the tech, to decide on what content stayed and what went, and to look at my uncomfortable video face… but by the third course, I basically just got over myself.

So this week, after I put the garden to bed, typed up this week’s Typewriter Letter, I thought it was time to make another ecourse. And this time it’s a freebie.

Free. I know. I’ve been selling so much and now a free one? Am I losing it?

Entirely possible.

It makes me gleeful to even say that I have made an ecourse on making ecourses. Hahahaha.

If you have ever wondered about making ecourses, check it out. My video face shows that I’ve moved on from caring about being too slick about any of this stuff. Also, cartoons are quietly playing in the background and even Amélie shows up to teach the ABCs and how to type on a typewriter. She’s so funny! Already a pro.

With this free ecourse on making ecourses (hahaha!) you’ll get:

34 minutes of video lessonsA 31 page eBook that you can download and printBehind the scenes of making an ecourseTech questions answeredTools to know where to begin

Which is all pretty rich for being free. Full disclosure on WHY it’s free. Because part of how I learned how to do it was by taking this course by Leonie Dawson:

And by watching a bunch of video tutorials on Kajabi.

There are a few affiliate links in there if you choose to buy what they are offering. But you can still get started just by taking the free training. Look at you go!
