I've enjoyed reading all the replies here, and I too am glad you are back. I think we are in a similar situation and I am guessing it is going to take us both time to build momentum back up. I hope you'll let me know if you DO decide to publish in a publication and find there is benefit to it. I'm sticking with self-publishing because I am a control freak 😁. I've just been back and deleted some old stuff I wrote and then I saw one was in a publication and thought . . . ooh I don't know if i can do that; at the very least i'd have to let them know and ask permission. Sending love, A🙏💚
