So it’s been awhile. I keep telling myself I can come back to this. But I think it’s time to be honest with myself and with you.

I just genuinely don’t have the time or physical / mental / emotional energy for this right now.

There’s a lot going on both in my own life and in my city. (And not all of it bad – is this a good time to mention I’m getting married next year? if there is a next year around these parts….)

So anyway. It might not be forever. I might come back to this. It might even happen sooner rather than later. And I still have half a chapter done, so I’ll probably finish the other half at some point and throw it up here. (And in a weird way, I feel like I might be more likely to come back to this if I take the expectation / pressure off of myself.)

I love you all so much. This project has brought me so much joy. I still can’t believe real people read something I translated – and liked it.

Thank you so much. I’m sorry I couldn’t do more.

I hope I’ll be back. In the meantime, take care of yourselves.
