There has been a lot going on since my last post. Shame on me for neglecting my writing. Well wait a minute. I haven’t been neglecting it at all. Three months ago I began a masters degree in creative writing.

I really questioned my choice to pursue it during the first two weeks of the first course. It was daunting to begin a masters degree and I didn’t think I had what it took to start let alone finish the program. But, I stuck with it and am almost a third of the way through the program and achieving the standard I’m accustomed to with my grades.

In addition to going to school, my son Lukas lives with me now. My daughter decided to stay with her mom in California. We have grown a lot the past few months together. It’s been a time of joy and even some frustration as we learn to live together in a modified space.
