I know there has been a shortage of blog entries lately. I've felt guilty about not posting, but life has been getting in the way. The last year has been one of monumental personal and professional change. I'm currently on a "sabbatical" on the West Coast Dillon Beach. The ocean air, beautiful scenery, and close proximity to family and friends make me feel more like myself and is inspiring me to return to writing. Thanks for reading, for your patience, and for your interest. If you're in California, I hope to see you soon.
