Oh my! It’s been a long time! I think it’s been well over a year since I have even logged on to my blog here on WordPress! It’s been so long and my life has changed so much, that I can’t even remember what it must have been like to devote hour after hour to both my blog and the books I was writing. Why, it’s been more than a year since I even worked on any of my manuscripts. The poor things are now sitting under a layer of virtual dust and cobwebs, remembering the good old days when I devoted my every waking hour to them, pouring out my heart and soul into those blank pages and giving life to people and plots that aspired to one day become a published book. But, my dreams and goals have changed. My husband and a new career takes up the majority of my waking hours now, and even holding (let alone having time to read) a book is a thing of the past.
I love my new life. I wouldn’t change it for anything. I’m no longer chasing after my author dreams, but am rooted in reality. I have a job that supports me and pays the bills. I know now that realistically, my writing would never give me such comfort and stability. And I’m fine with that. I truly am happy.
To all my writer friends who gave me support, advice, and most importantly, your time, I want to thank you so much. And wish you luck! I hope you achieve all your life goals and that your dreams come true! 🙂 I may return one day, to once again try my hand at writing, and to see how you all are doing, but until then, good luck and God bless!
Do you see my smile? Congratulations, Briana – to you and your husband! Wonderful news…I’m happy to read of your happiness 🙂
I hope you will make time for your writing – even a private journal of time…let’s keep in touch…I’ve missed you.
