How sweet of you to drop in on me.  Sorry to say but things in my life have gone down hill starting with my husband's early retirement (this particular event has prevented me from writing at all.  Since he has no friends, he follows me around so I have no privacy), my only brother died as did too many other relatives, then we moved to a new home in 2015 (with my husband barely helping at all....seems he's mostly given up on life...sigh).  All that put me in the doldrums for a long time.  I'm only now attempting to take back my life a little at a time.  I had stopped writing but forced myself to do something every year for NANOWRIMO with some small success but never took up writing the rest of the time.  I do miss it and my time on my favorite forums where I had a lot of friends including you (yes I remember you).  Lately many people have been reading my stuff and begging me to get back in the saddle.  I will try to pull myself back into the swirl of things again. 

I am glad you are moving on with your own writing.  I'm happy to have served as your muse.  Thank you for all the kind words and I hope to be more visible in the writing world again.  Hope you're doing well in your own life.  Keep in touch and best wishes to you.

It's nothing to drop in on an old time friend, especially one I used to talk to constantly when I was still heavily in the SWAT KATS fandom. You deserve the kind words, and I don't mind saying things how they are. You were a great person then, and were never condescending or rude and understood my curiosity for the taboo and such. You helped me understand a lot of things, especially about myself, through your writing. I kind of came out of the closet about two-three years ago (Bisexual (among other things) and very proud of it!)

But jeeze, that sounds awful. Your husband is a good guy no doubt but that kind of clinginess seems like it borders on insanity inducing. I personally would go crazy with that. And I am so sorry for your losses. I lost my grandmother a few years back, along with an aunt (My dad's older sister) and several great-relatives. It's been rough, so I understand your pain. (The woes of growing up with a very much older generation all of your life.) I do hope your husband finds another outlet, and lets you have your writing time back. Not even saying that as a fan, I'm saying that as someone who understands what it's like to have your writing muse interrupted in such a way. It's psychically exhausting and just draining not to have that kind of proper outlet anymore. 

I wish you the best of luck in pulling yourself back into the saddle! I'm rooting for you and your muse! And I'm glad you're doing NANOWRIMO as well! Anything to try and get those ideas and juices flowing. I do hope to see you in the writing world again as well, you were an inspiration to us all with your characterization that was nigh flawless and prose that engrossed so many of us for hours. (I know it captivated me for hours, so, I think I can speak for a lot of us.)

(Super duper flattered that you remember me though, like gosh. I used to lovingly refer to you as "Mom" when I was talking to other swat kats fans, hope you don't mind that.)

I'm doing good! Fighting a lot of mental and psychical sickness. I was born with shoddy health issues and they just all piled up as I got older. It's a lot of medical bullcrap but I'll live, as the saying goes. I'll do my best to keep in touch, but life is usually busy with hospital visits and spending a lot of time in health offices and therapy offices and such. Otherwise, I'm good, and quite content for the most part, I suppose, but I do hope things get better for you too o3o!

Thank you sweetheart for your kind words and understanding.  Congrats on being yourself too.  I have a transgendered (daughter to son) and his journey has been an uphill battle with many illnesses and mental health issues.  Just as one gets solved another rears its head.  We soldier through and celebrate the victories (like: getting his new birth certificate and driver's license at last...just last month) and try to minimize the hell of constant medical issues.  My youngest has married her long time girl friend in March.  Both of my youngest kids live at home and except for my son they hold jobs and all three pay me rent.  I much prefer having them under our roof (and we do have plenty of room) then struggling with housing like my oldest had when she first left home (she lives across the US from me).  With my younger kids at home, I keep my sanity dealing with lazy and woe-is-me hubby.  

Will try to keep in touch (which I'm really bad at right now) as I try to get my life and health back.  Hope things for you get better too.  Keep a positive attitude!  That more than anything else can help you cope with the periods of bad health and help you get well faster.  Has worked for me.  I even had kidney cancer and got through that with my kidney intact and cancer free (without chemo).  All the best!  (And no I don't mind you calling me mom.  I have kids that pass through my home when they are in need that call me that too).  ^~^
