It’s Time for a Change!
With the recent celebration of my 84th birthday, I am reordering my priorities in a concerted effort to make the best use of my time and writing interests during this late-blooming season in my life.
A part of this process was the decision to say “goodbye” to Medium.
Last fall my husband of 62 years suffered a serious motorcycle accident involving intensive surgery and therapy. Thankfully, he has recovered well, but caretaking took precedence over writing and this is my first post since.

Unfortunately, I have also been lax in keeping up with others’ posts. While I have kept communication with a few on Facebook, it has not been feasible to stay connected on this site.
I want to extend a special thank you to those of you who have followed me faithfully and encouraged me by your comments. I have gained new perspectives and ideas from many of you and thank you for sharing from your thoughts and varying backgrounds.
Thankfully, my writing has been more ministry-based than from a financial necessity, but drastic changes in the structure of Medium has only reinforced my need to seek other outlets for sharing my work!
I am switching to Substack, to better facilitate my current goals in a less complicated format and provide free access to all who are interested in reading without a membership.

I wish God’s best for each of you in your writing endeavors and look forward to reconnecting with those who are interested in faith-based, biblical postings from a new platform!
