I’d love to say that I have a [i]reallyreallyreallyreallyreally[/i] great reason for a light blog load lately, but the truth is, I don’t. The reason is simple: I’ve been tired.
Work, book, dog, life.
I know, I know. Boo-hoo-hoo poor me yada yada.
The thing is … I’ve missed you guys. So I’m back now clacking away, and what’s really on my mind is … you. While blogging is my chance to communicate with you, the blogs are [i]for[/i] you.

The thing is … I’ve missed you guys. So I’m back now clacking away, and what’s really on my mind is … you. While blogging is my chance to communicate with you, the blogs are [i]for[/i] you. It’s my way of trying to entertain and update, and when I don’t do it as much, I feel like something important is missing from my routine.
You may not realize this, but your interest, support and enthusiasm in what I do is a [i]huge[/i] boost to me. It energizes me, it encourages me. My creative brainpower is set mostly on writing the novels–[b]Finders Keepers[/b], and now [b]Crossline[/b]–but that type of writing is a period of isolation. It’s just me, at the desk.
Don’t get me wrong, I love … I mean LOVE writing. I’m different without it. It’s my thang. But writing isn’t a group effort.
And yet, when I’m blogging, I’m talking directly to you, about what’s going on in my kooky little brain at the moment, about today.
Does that mean going forward I’ll be blogging as much as ever? I can’t say. I don’t like to make those kinds of promises. But I will say that I’m more energized when I blog, and less energized when I don’t.
So if nothing else, this blog about blogging, is really a blog letter to all of you, who energize me to keep on plugging along when sometimes my energy drops a bit low.
This blog’s for you!
