I seriously have been meaning to finish writing several posts. I’ve been meaning to write for Creators more too.

I just haven’t.

I’ve been in a funk lately. College has been taking its toll, but my spurt with unemployment has done far more damage to my desire to write. A couple months ago, I was let go from my work and found myself without a job.

Just as an aside, collecting unemployment benefits is a ton of work. The good news is that I managed to find work at a clothing store, which is so ridiculously outside my comfort zone, but it’s work. It may be part time, and we may still be broke, but it’s work.

Things had been piling up for a while, taking a head when I received a letter from the Unemployment Office saying that my previous employer has disputed my claim and that I’d be required to attend a tribunal to make my case.

I just wanted to say that I seriously want to write. I want to participate here on WordPress with you readers. I just haven’t been able to convince myself to sit down and write.

But the fact of the matter is that I miss it. I plan to rectify that soon.

Thank you as always for reading this and my other posts. You guys are true champs, both new and old readers.

Until later, take care folks.

  2. It’s so tough when your world gets flipped upside down like that. I’m sorry to hear that you’ve been having such a hard time, and to hell with your former employer and their claim against you! I hope so much that it all works out and that you can get some forward momentum again. On the brightside, you’re already halfway through this semester of school and you’ve got some income coming in now. This will all be a distant memory soon, and you’ll be onto bigger and better things! Hang in there *inserts cat poster*

    Good luck with everything! Don’t worry, WordPress should still be around when you’re ready to be back. 🙂

    I was unemployed once, and it was one of the worst experiences I ever had. I wish you all the best.

  4. I understand. Completely. 100%. Right there. Ah!
    Sorry with all the life complications. But you seem like you are someone who will bounce back though! I have full faith in you! We’ll all be waiting and enjoy when you are back; but understand that real life is… well, reality. ;P

  5. Sorry to hear that you’ve been having a rough time with life and all that. I’m sure things will start looking up soon, just gotta plough through this crappy part. We’ll all still be here when you’re ready to get back to writing.
    When you get a chance, I nominated you for an award in my latest post! I really enjoy your writing, and your support of my blog has been awesome. It might not be much, but I feel like you deserve it https://alishasgamingblog.wordpress.com/2016/10/10/i-got-an-award/ 🙂

  6. I kind of know how you feel, mate – and I’ve been struggling with the whole writing thing of late. I seem to fluctuate between the “funk” and just being too damn busy, with not much in the way of a happy middle ground. It sucks, obviously, but I think we all understand that life can sometimes get in the way, so we’ll still be here when you get your groove back.

    And I genuinely hope you get everything sorted, and it all works out well – sooner rather than later.

    All the best!
