You are writing about one part or chapter of your life. I used to be disappointed when bloggers unceremoniously abandoned their blogs (um, Crazy Aunt Purl, are you listening?), but I kept a blog for a while after my divorce, and eventually I didn't want to write about it anymore. That's okay--channel your writing in the way that works for you.FavoriteJoansnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377914227915645124.post-71456536332371876062019-07-05T20:43:20.797-05:002019-07-05T20:43:20.797-05:00always enjoy hearing what you have to say :)always enjoy hearing what you have to say :)Candynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377914227915645124.post-1423827851880219342019-07-04T23:39:30.696-05:002019-07-04T23:39:30.696-05:00My husband often says, 'I remember when you di...My husband often says, 'I remember when you didn't swear (when we only had a few kids/or they were really little).

Something made me check back tonight....what you write is so real, about anger and how it fuels you for so long. "Either buried so deep or worn so thin"...wow - that's real. I feel ya. I'm getting there too. Your gift is being able to write about the human existence and the real things we think and feel, that most people could never get down on paper. I hope you keep on writing, somewhere. It would be a shame not to share that incredible talent.

I have a friend going thru the same thing you did right now and it’s so hard to watch her struggle and be angry and I’ve recommended she read this blog. But thru your writings I’ve also been able to see that change in tone and focus from anger to acceptance to rebuilding you life and I can’t wait to see that in my friend too. I hope you continue to write. Even on a once in a while basis. You have a great voice!

Your words are so real. I feel like I'm talking to a friend when I read your blog or posts. I can only say that you have a gift and you reach people.. truly touch their lives. I would suggest that you don't stop writing. You still have a story to tell. I've been reading this book I picked up at the library and I found very interesting, "One Year to a Writing Life" by Susan M. Tiberghien. She has some good suggestions for just putting pen to paper. I hope you keep writing!

When my ex left, 14 years ago, I started writing a short story - or maybe it was going to be a novel, I hadn't thought about how far I wanted to take it - based on the experience. I felt it had promise but eventually lost the fire and just didn't care any more. Ironically, my plan was to end the story not with meeting someone else (which I haven't done) or some spectacular revenge fantasy, but with reaching Meh. And once I reached meh, I lost the desire to keep telling the story.

When you are angry, the words seem to just flow from your fingers to your keys - whether it's about an ex or how that idiot in the left lane just cut you off to tear across three lanes to get to the exit - all without using their turn signal. <br /><br />I have been examining why I haven't been writing more. For me, I think, it boils down to really examining the minutiae (I KNOW! Who has time for that!). For example, I just took a random, makes no sense to anyone but me picture. I am now pondering how I can turn that into a post. Will it be Nobel Peace Prize worthy? Probably not. But most likely, it will resonate with someone else who will say, "This happens to me ALL the time too!" I have a feeling while a lot of people can understand/relate to an angry post, they can also relate to a Well, This Random Post.Gigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05467164195744234746noreply@blogger.com
