I had to put my writing to only a thought for ten years while I took care of children and fully vested myself in being a stay-at-home mom. When it was time to start again and pursue, I just knew, and it worked. I applaud you for doing what you know needs to be done with faith in your talents that when it's right to return it will happen and we'll all be here ready to welcome you back:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03392878549560521780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135194497307080856.post-70878905348391953622016-08-01T04:28:48.610-06:002016-08-01T04:28:48.610-06:00Aw.

I think I stumbled across your blog back in 2011 or so after being wowed by your submissions to some small writing prompt competitions I'd found.. you've given tons of time, and tons of yourself. It's good to take some time to become centered and refocus. I all but stopped writing completely while I was on the East Coast.. and now I'm back, recharged.. with my passion renewed. You'll be back, of that I'm certain. Plus.. now that I'm back in Utah (Spanish Fork), I'm sure I'll see you around.Skippy Bo Bippyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08726223362818603739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135194497307080856.post-27289164177500840812016-07-06T18:58:47.825-06:002016-07-06T18:58:47.825-06:00Hi, David,

I mean you haven't even hit middle age yet... There is time for your writing...<br /><br />I starte writing in my very late 40's and I am still unpublished, but that is fine. I drift in and out of this world too because I have to support myself. But some day, maybe, I will have the success you had with WOVEN... Be proud... BE HAPPY... It's wonderful that your new journey is taking you to a place that you enjoy. You will be helping others and that is very noble and WONDERFUL... Enjoy this new journey with no guilt for leaving... it is only temporary. And, as I have found out, this community will be here to welcome you back with open arms...<br /><br />Stay well Sir Knight....Michael Di Gesuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17047267262428143113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135194497307080856.post-27790161310311016782016-07-04T10:08:29.529-06:002016-07-04T10:08:29.529-06:00Thanks for letting us know.

It sounds like you have some adulting to do- and I hope it goes well. You sound like you are on a path that will be good for you and I am sure the time away from social media will allow you to work on the things you need to focus on.

One thing I've found is that trying to push myself to write when life is full of 'opportunities' only results in more stress and a lack of not only writing but reading, too. I had to step back and give myself some room. So, it's better to take it slow then kill your love of writing. Trust me.<br />S.P.
