One year later…
Hello, again.
I never thought I’d let Catsignal go so long without a single post. I love what I’ve done here. I love writing things and sharing them with you. But my chronic fatigue syndrome and migraines have kept me mentally and physically benched. And on that front, it has been a long, bad year.
I have, however, finally written another story. It’s one I had started a couple of years ago and never quite knew where to take it past a certain point. I have solved that problem, and the story – “Precarious Balance” – follows this note.
This by no means signals a return to regular posting. But it does, at least, tell me that I can still do this. I can still create. I can still put one word after another in what some may find an entertaining fashion. Even if I have to work on it piecemeal on the rare days when I am awake enough to concentrate, I can still do this. And that means the world to me.
I hope you enjoy the story. I also hope you don’t give up on Catsignal. I haven’t.
