So... For the handful of people that will read this, I want to offer a brief update.

Things have not been awesome.  This isn't a plea for pity, just a statement of fact.  And in time, things will return to being perfectly OK.  But one of the immediate impacts is that my writing takes a knock, and I'm acutely aware of an unfinished (and yes I hate it anyway) story, not to mention the many others that are not even that developed/publicly available.  What can I say, it will all end eventually and the stores will return.

On top of this, there is the inescapable COVID scenario, which just continues to demonstrate the innate capacity of humankind to wilfully ignore the blatantly obvious and desperately hope that things will just 'work out OK'.  What I have noticed, amongst other things, is that at times like this, I really don't have the capacity to read yet another story about some beaten, abused, abandoned, neglected kid.  And yes, at some future moment you can of course come back and quote me back to myself when I post it.  But it's far too difficult to read that stuff right now, and I feel surrounded by it.

So here I am.  Struggling, but I will eventually be OK, which I know puts me at a significant advantage to many others.   Hope you are all surviving at the very least, and that I will be back in a more meaningful capacity in the near future.

Take care.
