Hey, friends! 👋

Sooo, here’s a tiny life update: I’ve been slowly making my way back to the blog after the little accident situation I found myself in. Yeah, that fun chapter of my life. 🙃 First off, I really appreciate all the good vibes and emails you guys sent over – seriously, it meant a lot while I was basically Couch Potato Extraordinaire™. But lately? Big news: I’m somewhat functional again! I can sit at a computer (and by “sit,” I mean kind of awkwardly balance and shift around like a rusty robot, but hey, progress is progress).

One of the first things I jumped back into, of course, was my book projects. I’ve got a couple of those marinating in the background 📝, and now that I can actually type again without looking like I’m fighting with the keyboard, I’ve been chipping away at them. Honestly, it feels SO good to be creating again. It’s like the world’s longest quiet stretch has been lifted, and I’m reconnecting with my brain’s weird ideas again. The rust isn’t cute, but you get it.

And speaking of writing, if all goes well (🙏), I’m hoping to resume weekly short stories starting next week! So, for those of you who’ve been missing those little inbox surprises (I see you!), keep an eye on your email. There will likely be some quirky, half-baked characters and chaotic plots heading your way soon. Yay! 🎉

That said, I’m still quite a ways from being fully recovered. My accident? Let’s just say it was not the kind of adventure I recommend (and 0/10 stars; would not sign up again). It’s been slow-going, and there are days where I can’t do much except stare longingly at my to-do list while becoming one with my heating pad. BUT! At least I can do the thing again. The writing. And that, my friends, is LIFE to me.

I definitely won’t be posting daily like I was when I was doing my movie-a-day challenge (what was I even thinking with that brain-melting commitment?!) – but maybe, just maybe, I’ll give that challenge another go next year. 🧐 We’ll see how it goes. Gently dipping my toes back in for now and trying not to faceplant.

Anyway, just wanted to pop on here and say that, yes, I’m alive. Yes, I’m writing again. And yes, you’ll be seeing some more action on this blog soon-ish. Not “movie-every-day” level action, but let’s start slow and see where it lands. 😅

Talk soon,
Your slightly stiff, slowly recovering, but excited-to-write storyteller
