Getting Tossed In The Moat…
Once upon a time, there was a girl who wrote stories. She weaved words together for others. She lived a happy life. Cancer cratered some dreams and she went corporate.

It's called hiatus and it's supposed to make you feel better, take a step back, reexamine your priorities, and probably even some more hocus pocus.
