Five years is long time. I just finished reading both my stories to get reacclimated with the characters and storyline. I understand now why I left Phalen's Journey unfinished - the story is my life. Outside of the pages, my own life took a nose dive. 2020 was the beginning of the Covid Crap, the following year, my husband got cancer and the chemo turned him into a HUGE jerk. We are still trying to recover from the whirlwind that blew us all over the place. 
          	Rereading these stories, I had forgotten how funny and sarcastic I was once upon a time. I miss that side of me and I am hoping that by resuming my writing that that side of me will return. One day, I will finish Phalen's Journey but for now, I'll start a new book. BOLO and if any of my followers are still following, thank you. Buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride.

It has been too long since I have updated my story. I didn't realize just how much time had passed until the other day when I reached out to my friend via text. Her job and mine have conflicting schedules and we hadn't spoken in months. When she replied back, "Works seems to have taken over my life"...I cringed because I instantly knew how she felt. So, in that moment, I reminded myself that - you should love what you do but you have to make time to do what you love. I allowed my life to be consumed with work and it's a wonder I hadn't gone postal, yet. Just kidding, I don't even work in a post office. Anyway, my point is - life is short. I love my job but I love writing, too. One affords me to buy groceries while the other feeds my soul. I'll find my balance and be back on track in no time. Happy reading, ya'll and as always...AWHOOOO!!
