*tiptoes in*

Uh, hello 😛

Sorry about disappearing this week. Couple of things happened at once (as it always seems to do), and I just couldn’t do Flash Fiction.

I’ve been fending off tendonitis in both my elbows (thanks to having a second career as a writer and content creation as a teacher), but my right elbow just got really aggravated over the last few months and it just got too painful to spend a lot of time typing. Especially flash fiction which is sustained typing for an hour with no breaks. I took  a little time off from writing and content creation for work and well, my elbow feels better.

I have a doctor’s appointment for this on Monday, and hopefully we’ll get some treatment options that let me come back semi full-time to my previous activities. I’m going to take another week off from Flash Fiction because it really does seem to help, and any writing time should be editing.

Speaking of editing, obviously, this elbow issue has delayed These Small Hours by a few extra weeks. I’m nearly halfway through my final round of edits, and will hopefully be picking that back up this weekend with my day off on Monday.  As soon as I can put out a publication date, I will.

I also had a small cold that just took out the extra energy. Nothing bad enough to lay me out flat, just a lingering one that made it difficult to do anything after work but stare at walls.

We’ll hopefully be back to our normal situation in February. Until then, read some of the backlist and have a great week!

  • You don’t have to apologize to us but I was concerned. On the plus side, you know what’s wrong with you and I hope that there is a treatment for tendonitis that will help. It doesn’t help that you have a cold, too. Thank you for the update on your health. Take care of yourself.
