Hello there, everyone! It's been a while since I was last perusing the forums (once again) but I thought I'd pop back on. I haven't been writing of late, but it's on my bucket list for 2014 to begin something, anything.

A basic update is that I currently work at an office in the mornings during the work week. I will also begin nanny-ing a seven year old girl part-time come August 1st. Nanny-ing will take up my afternoons and early evenings, so my presence will be sporadic, but I wanted to let you guys know I have not been permanently swallowed by the abyss of life.

In other news, God has been teaching me A LOT spiritually in the last year. I've had a lot of difficult trials (and I'm currently struggling through one as I speak). It's a challenge when my head knows I need to trust God and that He'll take care of things but my heart is anxious and stuck in my human ways. Tsk tsk.

Anyhoo, just thought I'd drop you a note of my existence. ^^

*Squee* Helloooooooooooooooo! So good to see you around again!

It's a pleasure to see you still around too, Calista!

Welcome back, Calen! It's good to hear from you. I hope your writing goes well!

Thanks, Jonathan! I hope so too. I might be doing some exercises first rather than actual novel writing. My journal is in desperate need of updating as well... so much to write.

Warm-ups to writing can be helpful!
