Taking A Break

Just a short post here. I haven’t been very active on WordPress lately. I’ve been busy with work and also with a new project I’m working on. I still have a lot of interest in this blog and the blogs I follow. It’s just a bit too much at the moment to keep up writing on this blog as well as my new writing adventure.

I started writing a book recently. Although I have written a short book in the past, see here, this is a bit different. This is not autobiographical. This is 100% fiction…so yes, there will be some religion mixed in.  🙂   This book is going to be a novel. I have heard about too many people starting and never finishing novels and I am determined not to join their ranks. I am just over 1/10th of the way to my goal of 100,000+ words. I only add about 1,000 to 3,000 words each time I sit down to write, so this will take me some time. And that’s just the writing part. Then there is editing involved, proof-reading and much more.

I’m excited. I’m nervous…and I have no clue how things will turn out. I just need some time to focus on this one thing right now. So I will be taking a hiatus from this blog for an undetermined amount of time. I hope my followers understand. I will return at some point and I will write even longer posts than most of you care to read. It’s just who I am. Deal with it.   😉

I will keep you all posted about my progress and I will still read some of your posts and I will still comment from time to time. Take care and if I don’t visit in time for the upcoming holidays, let me wish you all a happy and healthy holiday season.

Wish me luck.

    1. Thank you sir. I think the most important part of this (at least so far) is that I’m having fun with it. There’s no pressure. Just letting the ideas flow and seeing where they go.
