Actually, nothing.
But I did fall off the radar. I haven't been posting for what? Six months? And the six months before that I had to push myself to get my interviews up on time.
I needed a break so I took one.
First, let me catch you up to speed. First lets start with life in general. I was care-giver for my mother-in-law for six years. While we lived with her I started writing my Vespian Way series and wrote nine, almost ten books during that time. I think I wrote to escape because she and I banged heads a lot.
Sometime in June/July of last year I just stopped writing. I think it was my way of morning her passing back in February of 2016. I also picked up a part-time job that has me up at 4:30 in the morning two days a week. Now that might not sound like much, but it actually messes up four days for me because I have to go to bed so darn early the day before and am normally too tired to think the days I work those early hours.
I also have been thinking about leaving my publisher, which is for another blog. So writing wasn't something I wanted to do. I still edited for the publisher I work for, but everything went by the wayside.
I'm glad I did that. I needed to take a step away.
Now I'm ready to get back to it.

Welcome back! We took a break, too - sometimes life happens. Sorry for your loss, glad you gave yourself some time with it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Adriana - life does happen and each of us needs to find the right way to deal with it or we can't move on.
