Thank you for the kind mention and putting me both in your and Liz's company, Bethany! 🥰 And I personally think that anyone who can get away with *not* having bangs (as someone endlessly fighting with hers) should stay away from bangs. (I have a fivehead, so bangs are required camo.) But your new hue and 'do look amazing. Truly.
When I was trying to make a living as a freelance writer, I ended up not doing a whole lot of writing for myself. It was like that muscle was used up before I could employ it. So, I ended up transitioning to day-jobbing as a bookkeeper. LOL. I needed that separation, to have a day job that wasn't creative, so I could selfishly keep all that magic for myself. But, that's only because that magic wasn't making me a full living (yet). The rub is I want my passion to be my full-time job. Working on it. Then there will be no need for the separation. Looking forward to that day. But, even then, separate time -- away from the "business" of it -- will need to be set to just be creative, to just indulge in that. And, sometimes, that's not writing, but making something new in the kitchen. Cooking is a happy, creative outlet for me. Great post, lovely. Thank you! xo
Love these thoughts, Sandra. The challenge of finding that creative time is the trickiest part! Or, better yet, protecting that amount of time that is required to go deep into the writing realm that’s often needed to produce something we feel is any good. Authentic.

Your bang comment made me laugh, and love yours!
I am as obsessed with your hair transformation as I am flattened by your son’s question “What do you even have to do today?” 😵💫
Hah! Thank you for the chuckle, Maddie Same, same.
Love the hair!!!!
Thanks Lindsay ❤️
