Under Construction
This summer, it seems my whole life is under construction. We've been living in limbo while the house we're hoping to buy in our beloved Lambertville has been taking shape.
I've been doing a lot of driving back and forth to the house to watch it grow into the next phase of its already quite long life. The process has been exciting and sometimes fraught.

Then there's my usual summer preoccupation: writing. With several novels underway at once, I've been trying to figure out where to take my writing next. I've been researching and drafting what I suspect will turn out to be a Middle Grade novel and rethinking a YA novel that didn't quite cohere. I've also been turning back to my first love, poetry, putting together the first manuscript of poems in a really long time.

Most of all, I've been grappling with what kind of writer I want to become. How should I spend the next part of my writing life? It's been a restless and uncertain couple of months trying to answer that question, and I'm still not sure.

And I'm hoping that with time and a little tearing down and rebuilding of my own, I'll figure out my own next phase.

ReplyDeleteOur struggle with infertility started in 2018, months after we got married. After a year of failed attempts trying to conceive naturally, we seek help through a local specialist. We were told that our treatment options were limited, and after a year of no progress, we were close to giving up. We decided to take a break from the struggle and heartache to discuss our options. During that time, we researched and found Priest Babaka, We knew after reading patient success stories and his achievements that we wanted to meet with him. Little did we know how much he would change our lives. At our consultation, he told us that we had a 0% chance of conceiving and that his Pregnancy Herbal Medicine was our only option.We decided to go through with the process and on our first try, I became pregnant with twins!
