I hope the title of this post keeps you reading because this is quite important - to my readers AND me.
During the last few weeks, and especially since the Covid 19 virus has taken over our entire world, I have pondered on whether to continue my blog. I've talked with R.J. about this as well, and he has totally agreed with my decision - so here it is.
When I began my blog nearly 12 years ago, blogs were just beginning to "take off", and I added it to my resume of writing efforts. Before that, my published writing consisted totally of newspaper articles, personality profiles, and travel pieces for magazines. I had the time to pursue them all.
With pleasant surprise, RJ and I have adjusted to our "new creative life", after publishing 5 books between us, and seeing our life change dramatically. We are busy creating every day, and I'm managing the business side of RJ's painting commissions. Each day is different and challenging.
The one disappointment for me is my inability to regularly take the time to write a blog, coupled with the fact that people are more interested in Facetime, FB Live, You Tube and podcasts. They want to see and hear who is talking - and I am going to move my memory moments, thoughts, and all manner of subjects to the FB Live show that RJ and I do on alternate Thursdays at 3 pm.
This blog site will remain up, and all the nearly 200 posts can be accessed by anyone who wants to read. In my new "video logs", I plan to expand topics and engage the ever-growing audience we have.
My thanks to all who have read and commented on this site for so long. And, remember, I'm not ending; I'm just moving on to a more contemporary venue!
