A Different Journey

I cancelled everything with my old website provider and officially only have my blog here. I am sad that I couldn't make it work, but happy to be getting a lot of money back.

I really wanted to get into blogging and try to do it professionally. I thought I had a unique idea and it is something I know a lot of people go through. But after the newness wore off it started to become a chore for me to update, and I think my writing suffered because of it. I know I am a talented writer, I have been told that by a variety of people. But this blog is not my best work, and I am disappointed in it. So rather then waste money on something that isn't going to help me make money, I am going to continue with it on a free site so I can continue to document my journey, but maybe without so much pressure I can work on my writing as well.

I have needed a creative outlet for a while, and since I am not ready to try to do anything with my acting, I need to do it with my writing. I have been working on a book for a while, and I think I finally have a clear vision. Finishing this book is something that is now very important to me. I wish I could afford to take a year or 6 months off work so that I could write, but I can't do that. So I am going to work on it whenever I can, whenever inspiration strikes.

When something happens that is disappointing in life, you have to find the courage to pick yourself back up and make the best of it. I am going to continue to stay positive about my blog even if it isn't what I wanted it to be, and put that energy into my book.

Maybe I'll make something out of that.

I know this has nothing to do with my weight loss journey, but its a journey all the same.
