I know it’s been a really long time since we’ve talked. I’m sorry. Things have been a little crazy the last few months with my MS treatment and work and then the pandemic began.
I know this is such a scary time and I hope you are all healthy and hanging in there.
I have been trying to write something eloquent and empowering and I’ve been at a loss. Sometimes I think taking a step back helps gain perspective.
So that’s what I did. I took some time away from writing. It didn’t necessarily help me gain any perspective.
I felt lonely; like I missed my friends. Jack and Tommy and Bill and Julie and Stephanie and Brittany and everyone else I created have been my saving grace for years. I rely on them to help me figure out what I’m thinking. I need them to help me see the world.
It might sound weird, but it’s true. Without them, I’m a little lost. I think I’ve been a little lost.
Maybe a lot.
I’ve started writing again and it is still not consistent, but it’s getting there. The stories have been constantly running through my head, but putting them on paper has been difficult.
I need to get back to writing on a more consistent basis. I need to interact more with you, my readers.
I think something that may help would be a place to talk about what this family has meant to you and what you look forward to each time a new book comes out.
I would truly appreciate hearing your thoughts about the series and the new generation. Are you enjoying reading more about Jimmy and Sabrina’s story? How about Desi and David?
What are you most looking forward to? What stories do you want me to tell?
Feel free to talk about anything you want. I just need to hear from people. I want to. I miss chatting.
Stay safe. Stay healthy
