It has certainly been a while since I last posted a video and even longer since I've actively engaged in my videos at a degree that I'm happy with. I won't go into a long excuse as to why, because life simply happened. I do want you to know that I have missed our conversations and the way that video making gave me a way to contribute to the amazing book community I am a part of. I've missed you. Here's to hoping this is my little splash back into content creation.

Thankfully everything has worked out in a positive way and I was able to receive the appropriate treatment and procedures. Not every American has that happen and I'm very aware of the privilege I have when it comes to access to health care. I'm not a doctor but if you have any questions that I can answer about my experience, I will. Thank you all for being so patient while I was away.
