👋 Hi! So, you are absolutely invited to join us as we head into a full three month Storywalk of this Selkie tale on Apr 01.  But as a potent warm up, please do enjoy this "tiny booklet, big epiphany" experience as a stand alone and complimentary appetizer! 
👣♥️👣
Supplies: colored pencils, thick piece of paper, magazine, collage supplies plus a string.

Prompt 01: Overlong

 In which we build a tiny little appetizer of a booklet and tie it up in a bow. And then find out what it looks like to stay overly long.

 01 INSTRUCTIONS

 1. Fold a thick piece of paper into fourths and then rip it down the middle from top to bottom. Number the pages (front to back) 1 through 8. Tie a bit of string round the crease to make a little booklet.

 2. On the back page (8) Put a pen in your non-dominant hand and intuitively draw yourself in your current state of "overlong". It likely won't even look like a self. Trust what shows up.

 3. Finish by opening your magazine to a random page. Clip out an image snippet and glue it into the drawing. Repeat two more times. Then intuitively add three colors to the drawing.

 

Prompt  02: Ocean Blue

In which we let the color blue carry us out to sea.

02 INSTRUCTIONS
1. Temporarily disassemble your booklet so that you can access a full spread of the adjoining pages numbered 2 and 7.
2. Starting at the front or back of a magazine, flip through the pages in order, looking for BLUE. Wherever you find it, cut a snippet of image. Continue until you have enough images to cover the full top and bottom of this double page.
3. Arrange and rearrange what you have selected, sorting for what goes above the fold and what below. Fill the space. Don't try to make sense of what has shown up - hold it lightly like a dream and trust your intuition as you glue everything into place.

Prompt  03: Hook and Line

In which we catch sight of the part of us that lost sight of the soul.

03 INSTRUCTIONS
1. Reassemble your booklet with string and bow and open it to the page 6/7 spread (with the bottom half of the ocean).
2. On the top, create a frankenstein character collage by flipping through your magazine and choosing three images and cobbling them together. What will be the legs, the body, the head?
3. Once you've glued them down, write a description for each. What do these illuminate about the part of you "lost in village thinking"?
4. Finish by drawing the fisherman a pole and then let the pen guide the line down into the ocean until it hooks on something. What do you seek? Write what you see in this image you have hooked.

Prompt  04: Rock Frolic

In which we find out something worth the trade of coming into form.

04 INSTRUCTIONS
1. Flip the pages of the booklet to the blank middle section.
2. Open a magazine to a random word-filled page and *without reading it* draw a rock and cut it out. Glue the rock onto the bottom half of the page.
3. Now scan the text and find a single word to circle. Did you know that THIS was worth coming into form?!
