People keep saying things…

Do you still write?

I remember your Window column. I liked that you said what I thought.

Why don’t you write for the paper anymore?

My mom used to read your column.

My dad used to read that column.

Sometimes I read that column right after the obituaries and the comics.

I really didn’t like that last column. What were you thinking?

Mom, don’t write stuff like that. It’s not true. Partly.

No, I’m not embarrassed. No one at school knows who you are.

I miss your column.

My husband said I let them stop me. When the newspaper I wrote a couple hundred columns for didn’t want to pay me for them—wouldn’t even give me a free subscription to the newspaper—I stopped writing the essays that opened the Window Over the Sink.

Duane was right. I let them stop me.

Well, not anymore.

The Window is open for business. It’ll be some old stuff , because people liked it. Because sometimes I don’t have time to write something new. It’ll be new stuff, too, because sometimes I do. And I’ll have guests. People from Around Here whose voices you have heard and encouraged right along with mine.

Now, about what people keep saying.

Yes, I still write. I write books. You can find them on Amazon and other on-line bookstores and through publishers. I have a website and a Facebook page. I hope you find them and like the books, but this blog isn’t about them.

To people who read my column. I am so glad and so appreciative of you. I hope you read it now, too. I hope like it, but even if you don’t, I’ll be glad to hear from you.

To my kids and grandkids, thanks for being who you are. I’ll work on the embarrassment thing.

To the ones who missed the column—me too. To Duane, for suggesting I do this—thanks. You were right. I did let them stop me. But now I’m back.
