introducing... two new blogs

I have been blogging for a few months now. I was unsure exactly how this blog would turn out and decided to just start anyway. For a while I have been pondering the purpose of this blog and the direction it is taking. Should I keep everything I am blogging about together or divide it into categories or different blogs? Should I have a blog just for gardening, just for writing, etc. I'm still pondering much of this!


When I began blogging my major goal was to share some of my art/writing more than I was. That has certainly happened. Another of my major plans was to provide information about Selective Mutism and to write about how my experiences of struggles around talking have affected me. This is something I am still passionate about and I have quite a lot of writing from the past few years that I would still like to share. It seems, however, that this blog is taking a different path. This blog is more about how my life is now rather than how things were in the past. I would really like this to remain the case.


In order to share my experiences and insights around Selective Mutism I have started another blog called Silent Sometimes. Feel free to visit!


Recently too I signed up to participate in the International small stones writing project. I hope to write a small stone ("a very short piece of writing that precisely captures a fully-engaged moment" - Fiona Robyn) each day in January and have started another blog to store the stones. Feel free to visit pausing to pick up small stones.
