It’s been a while since I last posted—some longtime readers even reached out to ask if I was okay, which I really appreciate.
All is well. I’ve just been busy wearing other hats. Much of my time now goes to providing tech support for bloggers, and I’ve been building Healthy Ads, an online advertising network I launched to connect genuinely healthful companies with health-focused bloggers and readers. Those product ads you see below my photo? That’s Healthy Ads in action.
I’ve also had a couple of personal distractions lately: we adopted Molly, a wonderful dog, in November, and we’re getting solar panels installed on our home. I’ll share more about both in future posts.
There’s a strange dynamic to blogging—if you stop for a while, the next post can feel like it must be spectacular. That pressure to create something extraordinary can be paralyzing and it becomes a self-fulfilling spiral. I also tend to feel a little worn out every year after October Unprocessed. Still, a small, meaningful moment is often enough to nudge me back into writing.
