Tuesday Plans…

I’m still undecided about what I want to do with Tuesdays! I enjoy both of the styles of writing, but do not get a big response out of either series like I’d first hoped.

Both of the series were supposed to play out as independent short stories, with one leaving insights and the other leaving questions to be answered. I am discovering that people are just too busy with lives and challenges of their own, to engage in much back and forth conversation. I’m not judging, rather, I’m being a realist about my expectations of others.

On an average day, most people wish to stop in and grab a cookie, taking a few moments to read whatever is laying upon the table in the Lobby. It’s a lot to ask for someone to stick around longer than that, as life’s highway is going at breakneck speed… no one has much available free time to invest in something or someone outside of their busy lives. I think this is why they created the like button on our feeds, as it’s sort of like a get out of jail free card for most. I get it! I have a large number of subscribers that I attempt to support, just as they support my site, sometimes having to skim the surface of their entries and leave a like, to offer them encouragement. It’s not easy to connect with everyone, and I’ve got nothing but time on my hands!

In order to cut myself some slack, as well as everyone else, I shall simply write what I think works for that day… minus any inquiring questions. It may be poetry you see, or possibly a short story of some kind. Perhaps I will feel musical, or even nostalgic in some literary form, sharing stories from long ago. The point is, I will write whatever seems fitting for the day, leaving you to come and go without feeling like you need to respond.

Writing to you should be a way for me to give love and encouragement to anyone and everyone, without expecting anything in return. I’m just grateful that you stopped by the Lobby.
