Second Anniversary

Dear Story Girl Readers,

I owe you an apology.

I am sorry because I have not been faithfully telling you about the mysteries of the written word, or sharing with you the exciting books I have read. I am not investing in your lives, dear Readers, and for that I am truly sorry. Life has been difficult and crazy in the last several months, but nevertheless, my hope for this blog was to inspire my readers to write, read, and dream for themselves. How can I inspire you if I never tell you about my work-in-progress, or the books I have loved, or what plans I am making for my future?

Two years ago, I started this blog. My first post went up on this very day. I have been pretty hit and miss throughout that time, but I am so thankful for those of you who are faithful to read my posts. It shows me that if I ever dare peek my head out of my shell and offer the world something I have created, there are people who might even be excited to see it. 

I want to hear from you, Readers. What are your interests in life, in reading? Ask me questions, send requests. As I continue to practice the art of poetry and prose, I want to know from you what you like to read. Do you like to write, as well? What stirs your soul?

Do you want book reviews and suggestions? Do you crave poetry, or non-fiction research? As my dad once said, "I'm picking up what you're laying down." So lay it down. Don't be afraid.

I've opened a contact page where you can get a hold of me, or you can comment below on this page. May the storytelling commence!
