this is it, what...let's get rich, what...*

I have made the decision. This will be my last week of posting to this blog. It's time to end this and move on to what I really need to be doing. This blog has helped me immensely since I began last April, but I am starting to see that it has diverted my energies from what I need to be doing. It is a time waster for me. A way of saying that I'm writing regularly without really writing. It's just not the real deal and I have to move on...

Straight from the cask said that writing is "the most beautiful and meaningful activity one can adopt." He's French, he knows these things...

I have to be about the business of writing, for real now.


*everyone knows, it's from the song "Luchini aka This Is It", Camp Lo ("Uptown Saturday Night" Profile Records, 1999), don't they?

Good luck to you girl.

Rachel,
We'll miss your posts of course, but on ne choisit pas son métier, c'est le métier qui vous choisit. If writing comes from heart and guts, no question to ask, you have to. Doubtless you'll find it the most challenging and rewarding activity, being among the few to do it, instead of try.
I don't post much these days either since I'm finishing my studies and about to become a lawyer. There's nothing like real involvment in a trial, the rules are very strict but... anything can happen :)).
I wish you good luck and patience :). Hope you'll come back anyway from time to time.

mmmm...that's delicious said...

Thanks everybody.
