When a writer dies... In his report, following his residency, Darrel wrote effusively of his time at the Gardens: "The setting of the McLoughlin Gardens is spectacular and wonderfully conducive to being creative. The isolated rural setting is marvelous, and the positioning of the house, facing east, is brilliant – I awoke to the morning sunrise each and every day of my stay. Beauty is all around, which is healing, exciting and inspiring. I worked on my fourth book, my third memoir, each day of my stay in the gardens in addition to singing jazz each afternoon for a few hours while gazing at the amazing Salish Sea." https://www.mcloughlingardens.org/news/2024/6/7/the-pinhole-camera-project-and-the-magic-of-solargraphy monthly 0.5 2024-06-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/591fdce41b631bb7454211c2/48269191-ddb6-4c2c-a8e3-2d4979f6fade/4A867CC8-C931-4CE6-86F4-78528B83A07B.jpeg News -

In her reflections on her experience at the Gardens, she wrote: “One thing I felt was very important was that I started a writing routine the very first morning in the cottage—otherwise it would have been easy to simply enjoy the surroundings and delay the writing. I am an early morning writer, so my writing started when the sun was just coming up across the water. I also brought my old Underwood typewriter, which I used as a creative experiment to see if my thinking and writing process changed using a typewriter. It did, but I’m still reflecting on how exactly. So as far as my own creative work, my time at the cottage was incredibly productive…Best of all, playing my cello next to the ocean or in the garden under the trees was magical.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/591fdce41b631bb7454211c2/1600967348757-VWI49NQDEV1BJS6I8RFX/Marcus+reading+at+Puntledge+Park.jpg Literary Arts -
