Going to say straight up
this post not exactly about writing, it is about changes in my life, which of
course can affect my writing. Just needed to get it out there to someone who is
not family and might understand what’s going on a little better.
Here's the thing. I can write from anywhere right? Yep, it's
right.
However, all my life has been set in two towns. My hometown and
the town I moved to when I moved in with my then boyfriend now husband (45-60
minutes away from said hometown.) We've been back and forth between two said
towns for the last 7 years. I visited/lived in San Diego (all the way across
the states I am from the Midwest) for a brief period of time right
after high school I probably would have moved if I didn't have some
baggage back at home.
We do not live in most exciting of places so husband and I have wanted to move
to the coast for the longest time. Him west, me east, however I will be happy wherever
we end up as I think he will be too.
He has a current job and
the commute currently is an hour one way. We’ve talked about moving closer but
rent is more and well we have free babysitters right across the way from us. No
to mention, he has been slowly starting to job hunt, he was not doing it to
heavy because we were looking outside our area and I was still finishing college,
currently done but hoping to go back once we get somewhere again. A few calls
here and there for him but nothing panned out and they have all been where we were
not looking at going.
Finally, a call from a
location we were looking at and interview. He thinks it went well. He’ll hear
something in a few weeks. It’s the holiday season and it makes me a little
nervous.
The more I think about
it the more I know this is going to affect my writing. Good or bad, I have not
decided. I know that my writing will be pushed aside and I am okay with that.
It will not be the first time it will not be the last time. I know also know if
it pans out I will be giving more chances to increase my writing circle, as it
will be closer to a bigger city.
Has anyone else had a
major move and how did it affect your writing? If anything comes of this interview,
I’ll let you all know!
Until then Happy
Writing!
