Maybe some of you have been wondering what the hell you signed up for when you clicked that subscribe link in one of my Medium stories. You subscribed and then….crickets.
Believe me, I’ve been thinking about you in the past couple of weeks! But I’ve also had laryngitis for the past 6 days, which translated into self-pity and lack of interest in life as I know it.
I’ve been swallowing honey right out of the damn beehive, drinking cough medicine straight from the bottle, and diffusing 100 proof Eucalyptus throughout my condo.
Thank God I have fingers, is all I have to say. Amazing how writing can save a life. If not for Medium and our Facebook groups, I would have hung myself.
If I had to pick out one positive thing about being sick? It slows us down. It makes us stop being such busy bodies and take a load off.
I’ve had tons of time in the past week to write and more importantly, READ what’s being put out into the Mediumsphere. And I’m impressed.
As a thank-you for keeping me entertained while I’ve been so sick I’d like to pay you back by paying it forward.
At the bottom of this email there’s a spot to leave a comment. Click it and respond with a link to one of your own Medium stories you’d like me to check out. I’m always looking for new reading material.
Reply by July 24th and I’ll compile your responses into a pay-it-forward post on Medium. I appreciated that you’ve subscribed and I promise to get back on the email horse once I’m feeling better.
