I'm still here...

Really, really busy... but still here. As one of my most recent posts stated (some months ago)... it was not that I ran out of things to say, but rather that I had too much to say! I still feel that way... but I see clearer days ahead, and fresh thoughts for blog posts beginning to flow again.

My novel -- Goodnight Sunshine -- should be ready soon. Hopefully this spring, at long last. What a process... such a layered and wonderful and exasperating process. I don't profess to be Hemingway, but I'm doing the best I can to be me. Baby steps... learning as I go... inspired by many, and hopeful that I might inspire a few. I am already starting my second novel -- at least in my head -- as I demand of myself the discipline required to finish my first. Three years into this new journey, I have embraced the notion that I am an author!

But for now, I tend to the busyness of daily life... inching forward on many fronts... hoping to return to this place--one of my most important creative outlets--soon.
