I've done very little blogging in the past two years. But I love connecting with people - and I would be so sad if you stopped writing your blog. Even being able to connect on facebook with you, your blog is one of the ones I always check, even if I don't comment. <br />Heidi Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420802651029097379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313130055534395503.post-83674480543322129602012-10-24T17:10:20.157-04:002012-10-24T17:10:20.157-04:00Aww.

I've written about writing because it's important to me, but lots of other things are, too. I tend to keep so many opinions to myself, and while I hope I can talk about things like faith and politics in a quiet and gentle way, people have very outspoken beliefs and I never want anything to turn into a brawl. :)Heidi Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420802651029097379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313130055534395503.post-85010673911062510212012-10-24T14:51:12.652-04:002012-10-24T14:51:12.652-04:00I've always enjoyed what you've had to say...I've always enjoyed what you've had to say, whether writing-related or not.

I'm not sure what I want to do with my blog either. I'm finding I'm spending less and less time on it. Hopefully whatever you decide we can still keep in touch.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00685341739870191402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313130055534395503.post-47265905205766449552012-10-24T09:19:27.472-04:002012-10-24T09:19:27.472-04:00Wow - you made it through that long post?

I love watching people's lives evolve, and feel grateful to be able to be around for the ride. <br /><br />That draft was scary, eh? I love it! I revised so that I couldn't see the changes until I clicked a button on Word when I was finished. I thought I'd done minimal rewriting but it turned out there were only about 12 original sentences left out of a 12 page story! Now I do all my rewriting that way. :)Heidi Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420802651029097379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313130055534395503.post-43405170248577255552012-10-24T09:05:12.779-04:002012-10-24T09:05:12.779-04:00I read the other post, sorry I didn't get to c...I read the other post, sorry I didn't get to comment.<br /><br />I'll stick with you, no matter what you write :)<br /><br />You could always write about how our team is gonna kick Ohio State's butt on Saturday.

Looking back, it seems that when I started blogging was when I really began embarking on a journey of self-discovery. And with each crest I reached came a change in my blog ... those that have "been with me" from the beginning will tell you how difficult it was to track me down at times, that's how frequently the changes came. It's clear to me now that all that change was a reflection of the transforming me. Now I have a domain name which never changes, so people can always find me, but once in a while the fancy strikes me to makeover the blog. I'm not sure if it's the web/graphic designer in me, but I simply cannot resist!roxanne s. sukhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16424834424208118694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7313130055534395503.post-82829612153105424402012-10-23T21:23:59.999-04:002012-10-23T21:23:59.999-04:00Thank you, Stina!
