Apologies

I apologize for the lack of blog posts these last few days. I haven’t been neglecting my main blog. Far from it, in fact.

I’ve been juggling putting together the events for Stuck’s book release, as well as the promotions attached to it. In addition to working on several critiques for a couple authors.

I’ve also undertaken the maintenance of my new book review site. Which ironically has been getting more support than I had imagined possible. The turn out on that has been phenomenal and I thank you all for the support. I’ve also created a Facebook page for the site. You can find it here: HERE. Feel free to join us there, as well.

Aspirations

 As a writer, what are your biggest aspirations?

Mine is that my work is being read and hoping that people enjoy it. It feels great to know what we write is being shared and read by people all over the world. I see it as a legacy, of sorts. Something to be remembered by later on down the line. Does that make sense?

Reflections

I’ve been looking back on this wonderful journey that I’ve been on, so far. I have to say that it’s been quite amazing. I’ve met so many beautiful people and have been making awesome friends. Not to mention everything that I’ve been learning about this world as I go along. Unbelievably, it’s only been 3 short months.

Honesty Is The Best Policy

I sometimes wonder why it’s difficult for some people to be upfront with someone about things that happen IRL. Why they feel that perhaps it’s better for someone else to deliver their bad news instead of doing so themselves? Or that they feel the need to ignore the person instead of confronting the situation at hand head-on. I honestly can’t understand that.

I’m the type of person that prefers honesty. I also prefer that people be upfront with me – whether it’s good or bad. One of my biggest pet peeves is having someone beat about the bush and sending someone else in their stead instead of coming to me and communicating about whatever is wrong. It’s mind-boggling to me, it really is.

We All Have Our Seasons

It’s been said that friendship is forever. We meet people everywhere we go, drifting through life and befriending those that we come across. Most friendships forged are able to stand the test of time, while some are only meant to be fleeting.

Those that we consider friends are meant to be in your life. They’re the ones that stick by you no matter what happens – be it good or bad. They’ll argue with you when they don’t agree on whatever random topic you’re discussing and might walk away in a bit of a huff, but let’s face it – at the end of the day, you’re back to being friends and ready to tackle the next storm that comes your way.

Others saunter on through, never looking back at you once they’re done getting whatever they need out of you. These are the ones that achieve only the role of a passer-by, leaving a small imprint behind that you’ll think about randomly. These are the ones that were never meant to be.
