Cycles – they’re all around us. A pattern so common – day/night, birth/death, problem/product, idea/publication – we often don’t even notice it. When I started paying attention to cycles in nature, what struck me were the commonalities in life cycles. Everyone knows about the life cycle of a frog or butterfly, but what about the starfish, the jellyfish, the giant clam? They have fascinating life cycles too. That’s where my recent book, Little Monsters of the Ocean: Metamorphosis under the Waves, came from. This kind of thinking can lead you to inspired writing, too.
