My blog of half-important thoughts and consistent communication practice. |
Hello there, It has become plain to me that I have not been deliberate in participating in the communities and circles that I run in. Whether it be church, friends, or the community of WdC, there is a severe lack of involvement on my part. To use WdC as an example, I use to put out a review every week and would respond to requests in a day or two. There were about five or six fellow writers that I would engage with on a regular basis, and at times it felt like we might become friends. Similarly, I had a tight circle of friends and felt completely at home at church. But a few years ago my problems caught up with me and I let things fall away as I went to a hard place. I'm not going to get into it all, but I'm struggling forward having already found the bedrock. I want to get back to that place where I use to be and then grow beyond it. I've been having a hard time finding a way to get this one review done, and maybe I need to do something different. One thing that would certainly be different would be getting back into practice. Reading often and giving honest, thoughtful reviews. I once had an idea to start a contest, but I think I'll keep that on the back burner for now. But I think I will start an interactive story soon so keep an eye out for that. Little fun something that everyone can get involved in. Deus Vult Gratia KS |
