Contemplating a Hiatus
I may take a little time off from blogging to work an idea that has been gnawing at me into an essay.
With a varied career behind me - "illustrious writing career" - I have begun to wonder what it all means. Poetry? No, I don't foresee writing much more of that. Plays in verse? Possibly. One project rests at a standstill right at intermission - the longest such I've ever subjected myself to in the writing of a play. (Maybe the line cannot be retrieved.) But I have a couple of projects long in the contemplation stage which I must sooner rather than later work toward bringing to fruition or else give up on. Prose essays? I can't see myself doing much more work in that area either. This then would be something of a swan song.
Because I tend to focus on one thing at a time, I may be absent from my "News" pages for a bit. So no random thoughts on Cicero and whatnot. (If I get back to Cicero.) To be sure if I do get an essay done I will report that here. But life promises to be hectic in the near future so even singular focus may not speed the plow along too rapidly.
