I have been in the desert looking for the thing that I lost. Only to find that I hadn’t lost it. It only went to sleep for awhile because I had to have time to heal wounds that will never fully be gone. Then a Pandemic happened, then life happened.
I think that the first thing that happened that wounded me the deepest, was my mom’s passing in March of 2017. I’ve written about it before. Then, the pandemic happened, and then most recently, my marriage ended. I have always believed that everything happens for a reason. Do I think it’s some kind of divine plan. No, I don’t. However, It’s been my experience that life has a way of balancing itself. Especially if you fail to do it yourself.
I may not have lost my love of writing. I did pick up another passion during the pandemic. Photography has been a fantastic creative experience for me. I’ve really felt it’s helped to reawaken by creative self. It helped to remind me that I’m still a creative person, and that I need to honor that part of myself. Because it is a core part of who I am.
I’m hoping to post more frequently here, and over on Medium. I’m going to be diving back into writing on a more consistent basis. I’ve got several ideas I’m working on, and I’ve started working on my Lisa Goodwin series again. I’ve renamed it The Immortal Hunter series, and I’m publishing it to Kindle Vella. I am going all in on the full vision I’ve had for this story since I’ve first starting putting the idea to page. Kindle Vella allows me to serialize it, in the way that I’ve always imagined this series.
I’m finding myself again. It’s slow, and there are going to be speed bumps. Keep your eyes open and get ready for a lot of great content. I think I’m finding my point of Zen once again. Or at least something that feels and looks like it.
Also if you’re able too, please consider subscribing. I’ll be putting a lot of content behind the paywall. All the archives are behind the paywall now.
