My regular readers are used to this. I blog for awhile, then I stop. Blog again for awhile, then stop. Well, I may be doing it to you again. I’m headed for a stop.

I have no idea how long I’ll be gone. I’ve set a realistic goal of finishing my novel within a month. Maybe I’ll be back after that, and maybe I’ll need to go straight to my next book. I have no way of knowing at this point. The only thing I know is I’ve got too much going on and the book must be my priority. Why? First, I love to write. Second, it’s necessary for me mentally to be pursuing something more. Third, I just plain need to finish this book. I believe it’s good enough to be published and hopefully there’s some editors out there who agree. But, no matter what, it’s critical for me to step back and say, “I did it.”

I debated whether to post this or not, but came to the conclusion that my “I’ll be backs…I’ll be backs…I’ll be backs” had gotten to the point of absurdity.

I’ll definitely be back. It’s just a matter of when. Hopefully it won’t take too long.

Thank you to all of you who are patient each time I step away.
