I’m grateful for the growth.

I can’t believe it! Seven months ago I had returned to Medium to work on my essay writing. I had been away from prose for so long. I had been slowed by health issues and grief. Depression took the joy of writing from me. But slowly, ever so slowly, I made my way back. Poetry helped me to clear the hurdles. I dipped a toe into essay writing and now I’m immersed in the world.

Thank you to those who have recently followed my page. I appreciate the support. I plan to continue writing and adding more content to Medium. Please feel free to suggest any ideas that you’d like to see on my page. I write on a variety of topics from education to politics. I discuss current events and local news. I give my opinions on the latest tv shows, movies, and books.

Writing is my passion. The more I write the more I want to write. I try to write one piece every day on this platform. But sometimes my depression rises back up and I may miss a day or two of posting. But that’s ok. I try to do other writing related things like reading and research. Then, when my mood is better, I return to Medium.

As I continue to grow on this platform, I will hone my writing skills. I want y pieces to be as polished as possible. I want to present accurate and reliable work. I’ve seen plenty of articles and essays on Medium that looked thrown together. Words on a page. No passion. Followers deserve better than sloppy pieces.

Thank you again to my 300 followers. Stay tuned! There is more to come. I already have a couple of ideas that I what to write about. I will be posting them a bit later. Enjoy what is on my page. Please comment, like, and share with your followers. Happy reading!
