Last Column For My Local Newspaper, "Kid Friendly" In The Highlands Current

Helllllo November!

It has been some time since I published to this blog, and rest assured, lots has been going on. Some of which is website production that I can’t share yet because it’s corporate and corporate is complicated, so maybe you’ll learn about it, maybe you won’t! Hope that you do, however.

This blog post is centered on writing. I neglected to publicize my newsletter column for the Highlands Current here (tiss tiss!), so now is my time to tell you that November’s newspaper column is my last. For now. Maybe they will take me back. But I sort of resigned the column. For now.

Here’s the scoop I told Facebook, and I’ll tell you too:

 

Today is the last time I turn in my newspaper column for the Highlands Current. Writing for them and a printed outlet has been an honor. Honor. Dream. Writing about kids and motherhood can be cathartic for me, but also emotionally draining along the way. So I need the break. However, hitting the deadline got me out of the house to complete writing (usually only client work gets me out of the house). So I'll remember this and book myself to get out of the house to finish work that no one knows I'm working on LOL. Having an editor who can cut and replace has also been new. Luckily, I strategically got my article in soooo last minute every time, that he couldn't edit it much. Muahaha. Look for it on Friday's newsstand of the Highlands Current. Thank you for reading the columns if you did. Hope it helped you.

 

I did write 14 columns (you can read them all here). So that is a little over a year. I am sad. Not gonna lie. Maybe I’ll be back. Maybe I just need the break.
