So here I am back staring at this blog -- all six entries of it -- and thinking, maybe it's time to dust off the cobwebs. A few years ago, this space was a place for me to "publish" my creative writing. It was a place for me to force myself to "finish" my ideas, and prevent myself from endlessly editing my work. Lately I've been thinking it might be time to re-purpose this place.

When I moved out west, I had the best intentions in terms of keeping in touch. But time differences make scheduling a challenge - is it too late to phone? Too early to text? Email is less likely to wake you up, but always feels antiquated and overly formal. Social media has never really been my style.

I if I write it, will you come? I was thinking I'd write every two weeks. We're all busy so I'll keep it short and sweet. I'll make it current too - I'll only use photos I've taken since the last post. And I'll do my best to entertain you - to make it fun and funny or to make you stop and think.
This place can become a window into my life. You can look through it if you like. Best of all, time won't matter. You can read this whenever it's convenient for you. Maybe you'll read it all at once, the way you binge-watch your guilty pleasures on Netflix. Or maybe we'll have a bi-weekly coffee date. Or maybe this is the only post you'll ever read. I won't judge you - we'll still be friends either way.
But I'm hoping that you'll come back. And I'm hoping that if you read this, when we meet again, it won't feel as if we've grown so far apart. What do you think?
