Sometimes, it’s time to clean house. Sometimes, you need a vacation. Sometimes, you need to hit pause.

I set myself a challenge this year. I wanted to do regular blog posts, rotating between Writing Tips and Thinking Out Loud. I did pretty well. But I need to pause for minute and video some more tips, draft some more thinking, get ready for my YA Fiction class at ACC this fall and you know, do general housekeeping. So I’ll be back on September 14 and each Tuesday thereafter.

Wear your mask. It’s easy. It’s effective. And it is not your right to get someone you love (or hate) sick. Yeah, ’nuff said.
