Love your writing! I’m happy to hang around waiting for whatever lovely nuggets you leave out whenever your schedule allows. Boundaries change. Priorities change. We want to write, but the bills have to get paid. My life as a writer is morphing after a looonnnggg time of other parts of life coming first. It’s still hard. It’s still messy. And I still have to remind myself to take care of me and find a balance that works. You’re not alone.
Thanks so much, Lynn. I agree, it’s a constant assessing and adjusting and trying different things. Like doing a jigsaw puzzle but you’re cutting your own pieces as you go. I think it’s underrated to think that as you write, your writing will get better, but so will the ability to care for how you’re doing it.
This is beautiful. Thank you.
Thank you, Adi.
Beautifully put. I look forward to reading more of your stuff!!
Thank you, Jodie.
