Jinjer Stanton replied to jeff herman's discussion CAN YOU BE BOTH RELIGIOUS AND NON-SPIRITUAL? in the group Spiritual Writing and Publishing"Religions arise from spiritual questing and/or experience. They are constructs created by human minds to make sense of the universe. Sometimes, we get it wrong, sometimes right -- in every religion. My personal myth is that god/s divided divine…"
Jinjer Stanton replied to jeff herman's discussion ARE YOU CAPABLE OF HAVING YOUR OWN TALK SHOW? in the group Book Promotion"I do better answering questions than coming up with them on the spur of the moment. I come up with them thinking of the conversation later. Makes the editing hard! :-)"
Jinjer Stanton replied to jeff herman's discussion DO YOU THINK BOOK PROMOTION SHOULD BE THE PUBLISHER'S JOB? in the group Book Promotion"Thanks to everyone for all this useful and passionate discussion!
I've managed only small amounts of publicity on my own and while my talks and my radio appearance were good experiences, the kind of effort I put in to getting them was alien to…"

Jinjer Stanton replied to jeff herman's discussion IS SCIENTOLOGY A SPIRITUAL OR INTELLECTUAL RELIGION? in the group Spiritual Writing and Publishing"I hesitate to judge it. I have feelings about it that tend toward harsh. But I also see that for those who follow it, it may fulfill a vital function. I remind myself that each of us has each a unique purpose and while my purpose does not involve…"
Jinjer Stanton replied to jeff herman's discussion IS SCIENTOLOGY A SPIRITUAL OR INTELLECTUAL RELIGION? in the group Spiritual Writing and Publishing"I was not there, but I heard it from someone who knew someone who said he was. Back before L Ron created Scientology he was a science fiction fan who attended SF conventions. At one of these, at a late night gab fest, he was heard to say that if…"
Jinjer Stanton replied to Aya Katz's discussion Is there a market for books encouraging risk-taking for risk averse children and teens? in the group Children's Books and YA"I keep thinking about all the things I wish someone had told me when I was young … and I didn't know to ask about, or was too shy to ask about so I hemmed myself in to avoid mistakes!

Jinjer Stanton replied to Aya Katz's discussion Is there a market for books encouraging risk-taking for risk averse children and teens? in the group Children's Books and YA"This is something that has been bubbling in the back of my brain recently. No conclusions yet. Glad to see the discussion."
Jinjer Stanton commented on Ronald R. Hanna's blog post External views on some internal perspectives"An interesting question.
Being an herbalist, your grandmother's use of the word "roots" makes me wonder if the behaviors of the affected person were due to psychoactive herbs like datura as well as any kind of ceremonial…"

Jinjer Stanton replied to jeff herman's discussion IS THE NEWS FICTION OR NON-FICTION? in the group Non-fiction"I think non-fiction is an ideal. The news tries to supply facts, but the truth is that any story told must be edited and the process of editing prunes away pieces of the whole and turns it into fiction. The more deeply we delve into any event the…"
Jinjer Stanton replied to jeff herman's discussion DOES FICTION REQUIRE A DIFFERENT BRAIN? in the group Non-fiction"As to whether fiction requires a different brain…I have written both and I approach them the same way…by feeling my way through and courting the words that will express that feeling.
