I’ve been working on and off for a few months on a couple of essays but have finally come to the realization I need to be focusing on some other writing projects for at least the rest of the year. I’m writing a book! It’s a hiking guidebook for the Big Thicket eco region here in Texas and it’s going to take up a lot of my mental space for the next couple of years. It’s not that I’m not gardening or even thinking about gardening but I find myself deviating to projects that are of lesser importance than this book or finishing another book I started back in 2021. I’d rather be putting in the effort on book writing or writing over at when I have the time.
With ending the podcast last year I knew writing here might eventually dwindle. I still have goals to do more garden writing and communication in the future but the time for that isn’t in this season of life. I do find myself more focused on ecology rather than strict gardening and get overly annoyed as “classic” garden talk. Time to take a break, eh?
So, feel free to follow me at my other newsletter, or on my blog, or on Instagram if you want. And I’ll be back here some day with updates on the book and on gardening!
Feel free to stay subscribed if you want, I won’t be sending anything out anytime soon and it will make it convenient if I ever do get started writing here again. Or unsubscribe if it declutters your life a bit—it’s ok!
Thanks for listening and reading over the years!
