It was my pleasure and honor to be asked by Bryan to be a guest on his blog while he has been recovering from knee surgery. Bryan is an extraordinary writer and a truly good person, who I am grateful to have as a friend, teacher and mentor! He will be back next week and if you by chance haven’t had the pleasure of reading his blog, pop over and check it out; you will be so glad you did!
I want to thank the people who took the time to guest post on my blog. These past two weeks my mind has not been in a writing mode. With the help of K.M. Allan, J.A. Sullivan, Paul and Susan, you’ve kept this little blog of mine going.
I cannot thank you enough.
On a personal note I am now off Oxycodone and because of that my writer’s mind has returned. Life will return to normal next week as I return to my blog and my second novel.
Get ready for some really cool hospital stories.
Until then I would like to introduce a favorite person of mine who will be sharing her thoughts on my Friday’s post.
I remember the day I met Susan. I was reading a post from a blog that I follow. I remember commenting on the topic and decided to see…

You are kind and just a tiny bit biased, I think……Love you!

No, he’s not. You’re a good writer. Simple as that.
Brave and strong.
Great job.

I feel so fortunate to have read that!! You did such an incredible job describing and sharing it all. Thank you, Susan.

Also, I know that loop very well. I very much relate to the way you described it as working – the blank feeing in your mind that feels like writer’s block, but is really that I’m processing something my heart and mind need time to process. I don’t think it’s a bad thing or place, it just is. Since I’m fairly new to writing again, I think the anger and sorrow about not writing during those times were due to (unrealistic) expectations I devised for myself and my writing as well as fear that the words would fade away (like they have in the past). I don’t know what the future holds, but I know the writing and the words are always there when I need them to be (when my ego doesn’t get in the way).
And I wanted to say that I appreciate beyond measure you sharing your blindness journey. Everyone says ‘we can do hard things’ and I believe that to be true. But it sure as hell doesn’t make the hard things easier!
Love to you, my friend.
