Back from the brink.

Hello people of the internet world. How are you? "You're girl is lovely, Hubbel."

Sorry to be so nostalgic, I just think that quote from "The Way We Were" is one of the best post-break-up-meet-each-other-on-the-street-and-be-cool-about-it lines in history.

I apologize that I have been away so long. I really apologize to myself-as I wandered away from blog-land to pursue a greater endeavor of writing a novel for youth and also picture books for smaller children. I passionately dove into the work of building this world for this wonderful group of characters based roughly on you guessed it-my family.

Strike that-I'm not sorry about writing a book, but I AM sorry that I got a bad case of writer's block and haven't written much of ANYTHING in the past few months. So, I get back to my "roots" I will continue to "just keep writing" for my novel, or my children books or the play idea I came up with from a dream, or even just in my journal. I will from time to time be checking in with my internet persona. I forgot how nice (and sometimes scary) it is to know that I can write something, click a button and the whole world can see it, if they so choose.

Lord knows I can use some positive feedback considering I received my third rejection letter-which isn't what hurts. What hurts is that the editor used IMPROPER GRAMMAR in her letter. She told me "I enjoyed reading YOU story." I capitalized the word you to show what is driving me crazy. Now I know I make mistakes, but that just seems ridiculous-this is her profession. Anyways, I'll get off my high horse-or maybe just stay on it and mosey out of town....

"Happy trails to you, until we meet again..."
