FYI, I’m probably going to stop blogging December 31 for a month-long hiatus before considering stopping permanently. Just a heads up. (I’ll still keep the blog site but not add new content.)
The newsletter and my Facebook page will be the place to reach me.
I like blogging and my blog got a lot of views – over 50,000 in 2018 – and now it’s time to return to an emphasis on writing books.
I’ll miss you – so let’s stay in touch through the Facebook page and my newsletter!

I’m going to miss your blog! You’ve been a great help to me as a beginning writer as well as an inspiration. I hope you resume your blog. Thank you for all the time and thoughtfulness you’ve given us.

You are very welcome. I really enjoyed blogging, too. You will still be able to send me a message using the contact me button and ask me anything you need to know, Plus you can join my newsletter and when you reply to that, it comes right to my email. You can also send me messages on my Facebook page. But I’m going to miss the blog if I decide to stop after January! I’m gonna miss all of you guys if you don’t stay in touch!

Subscribe to my newsletter or use the contact me button on my blog right now so we can stay in touch. It basically is a direct line to my email and when I reply, we will be all set.

I will still be around and you can always contact me for anything. The blog isnt going to go away so all the contact me buttons and everything else will still work, but I would really love everyone to subscribe to my newsletter or join my Facebook page. That way we won’t have a break in communications

Oh no. I will miss you. Will you still run your writing contest? I was so thrilled to be part of your last contest and was looking forward to the next one. Still, I understand, blogging takes up a lot of time and energy. It is difficult to sustain and get other work accomplished. Best of luck to you.

You can always contact me through the blog. It will stay up as a landing page for people trying to find me or my books, so the contact me but will still work. Plus you can join the Facebook page and I think you already have my email address so you can always reach out whatever way works best for you.

I’m taking some time off for much the same reason. Please definitely let me know if you are planning another anthology/contest in 2019 as I still would love to try for a spot in one of those one of these days.

Make sure I have your email address. If you aren’t sure, send me a message using the “contact me“ button and then I’ll have it for sure. You can also subscribe to my newsletter which will, if you reply when I send it out, will send you right to my email.
And of course there’s a Facebook page.
So I’ll still be around. These buttons are still going to work.

Okay, Dan, I understand. Blogging takes up a lot of time. I have you on facebook and I think on the newsletter, but I’ll sign up again just in case. Good luck to you and your writer’s pen. WRite loads.

I’m sorry to hear that you’re considering stepping away from the blog, but it’s so hard to juggle a blog, everything else, AND focus on book writing. Best wishes on whatever you decided and thanks for all of the great insights and advice you’ve shared- and the fun contests 🙂
