Blog is closing

Hello friends!

I haven’t posted on this blog in a while, but I do want to assure you that I’m a lot less depressed than I was when I wrote my last post. I’d never had Seasonal Affective Disorder before and it was tough to deal with.

Anyway, on the writing front, this is an update to say I’m going to stop posting on this blog and let my subscription to this platform lapse, which means the blog will disappear in September 2024.

Although I’ve always been very reflective, I haven’t found much fulfillment in writing about feelings, observations and high-level concepts, as I have done on this blog.

Lately I’ve been finding more success with other forms of writing. I thrive when I tell stories based on concrete facts and lived experiences. In these cases, I might drop in a small reflection here and there, but largely leave the audience to reflect on it themselves, and come to their own philosophical conclusions, if they want to.

I figured this out on stage: through storytelling, speech-making, MCing, comedy and improv. The immediate feedback and energy of the audience lights me up. Although that spark doesn’t happen every single time, it’s all part of the package.

Off-stage, I’m working on personal projects that have a longer lead time, are harder to get right, and may never see the light of day. That may sound terribly unmotivating but I’m enjoying the process. I may blog again, depending on how things go.

Thank you so much for reading and being part of my journey.
