REDFeather MIND | BODY | SPIRIT 23 MICHELLE MOTUZAS has been a psychic medium and a student of shamanism for more than 20 years. She is the author/artist of The Shamanic Healing Oracle and The Wild Elemental Oracle and the coauthor and artist of The Empathic Oracle . Living in New England, she finds inspiration from the natural landscape and wildlife that surrounds her. In addition to her spiritual practice, writing, and creating illustrations, she also has a fine-arts practice. Find more information about Michelle at www.michelleamotuzas.com . I could finally breathe again. Months later, when I was talking to my editor about The Empathic Oracle , she casually asked, “Oh, and how are the color-your-own Tarot cards coming?” Whaaaaat?!?! She said she “never rushes her authors” (bless her, she gets me) but, um . . . where is it? I told her I had sent her the images, albeit a day late. (See failure above.) Honestly, since I’d submitted one day late, I had worried that since the publisher reserves the right to not publish if the project is late, they might not be published at all, and I was too ashamed that I let them down (Fail—again!) to ever actually ask about the deck! She said nothing of the sort and told me that they would still love to have them. My first thought was “Woo hoo . . . now I get the chance to redo them and make them better!” I would like to say that within the week, I dusted them off and turned them in. Hahaha . . . please recall the third paragraph of this post. I think it took me another six months or so to finally submit them again.
