About nine months ago, I disappeared from this space I'd carved out for myself on the world wide web. I didn't plan it or even notice right away. And then when I did, I found that I just had nothing that I wanted to say.
I stopped reading. I started binge watching Criminal Minds on Netflix. My personal life felt very off limits.
So what was left? Not a lot that I wanted to share.
For the first time since 2005, I didn't have a blog where I was sharing all my thoughts with my friends and anyone else who stumbled upon them.
And it was glorious.
But now I feel like I want to share again. So here I am. Thanks for sticking around.
And if you're an author or a publicist and I totally dropped the ball on reading your book or writing and posting a review that I owe you, I apologize. I certainly didn't intend to let anyone down, but this break has been incredibly healthy and helpful for me.
I'm working on another post to share a little more about the past nine months. Stay tuned!
