No, I'm not remodeling. Just reviving my long dormant blog. It's amazing how much dust collects when something is neglected. Blog gadgets that no longer function, old posts that don't seem to make sense anymore, links to sites that no longer exist - even a blog description that doesn't really fit the mission now. So, a little clean-up, a few modifications, and...well, I suppose I actually AM remodeling, so to speak.
A quick review tells me the last time this blog was active was about six years ago, with the last sporadic posts happening in 2012 and 2013. Boy, has a lot changed since then. I was still considering writing as an eventual career plan back then. But life has a funny way of heading n a direction you didn't really set out to pursue.
Instead, I am now a college graduate (yeah, a little behind "schedule") with a career I enjoy. Writing remains a "side project". But one for which I still carry a tremendous passion.
So I write. Almost every day. Most of my work still leans toward short stories, and I've even begun submitting pieces for contests again. It's not a career pursuit anymore, but maybe one of these days I'll actually get the right combination of inspiration and opportunity to finish one of my in-progress novel projects and make a few dollars.
In the meantime, it may not be the trip I set out upon many years ago, but my journey can still be followed here.
