When it’s been well over two hundred days since your last post, does that mean your blog’s been abandoned? Not always. I’ve got a ton of ideas running through my mind, and it’s time to put some of them here on Wordspring.
What happened in the meantime? The short answer is – I needed a break. 2009 was an incredibly intense year, in which I found out what happens when you start a business on no money, and try to do everything yourself. It magnifies both your strengths and your weaknesses. And by the autumn of last year, I was running on empty. So I escaped to the “security” of paid employment in a completely different field, and I did my best to take care of my family. It took a bit longer to take care of myself as well, but that seems to be coming along, too.
As of right now, I am looking for more work in the communications field (where I have always been at my best). I’ve also signed up for Social Media Camp on October 3rd, and I’ve just finished the seminal book, “Here Comes Everybody” by Clay Shirky. Those three things alone deserve separate posts. So stay tuned.
Glad to see you back Catherine! I know it can be very difficult to juggle the everyday realities of life. Remember, slow and steady wins the race!
Welcome back? Glad I kept that RSS feed waiting for you.
Thanks, fellas. Suddenly I’m bubbling over with ideas. I may have to start writing for other blogs, too
