Hey guys,
I'm still here, though it's been a little while.
You might remember a blog post about two months back where I mentioned I got a new job, and things since then have been a whirlwind of activity as I shifted my life to something entirely different than it was at the beginning of the year. Here's some of what I've been up to!
1. New job - I'm a medical microbiologist now, working at a hospital and testing patients' specimens for pathogens.
I'm testing for Covid, too, but I've been vaccinated now, so that's a relief!
...Also, my new workplace, coincidentally, is on Dewey Street,, and those of you who've read my novels know why I'm delighted by that. 
2. New state - I live in Vermont now. It's a bit colder here than I'm used to for this time of year, but that's what I was hoping for, honestly. The state is beautiful, and as a hiker, the mountains are amazing. There are mountains beside my town bigger than any in the whole state I came from!
3. New apartment - I got a sweet deal. Two bedroom apartment, with all utilities included in the rent, for a reasonable price. And it's only a two-minute commute to work!
4. New... profile pic? I've had the same profile pic for years and years, so I changed it to a slightly suspicious looking Dinky.
Anyway, now that things are finally settling down, hopefully I can start writing again. Not giving any timeframe on release of anything, but I'm working on it. Or trying at least.

Congratulations. I hear a lot of good things about Vermont.
You're in a good place. Yay!
wow, dang :O that sounds awesome!
Congratulations!!! From earlier blog posts it seemed pretty clear that your work was weighing you down, so it's great to hear you're managed to move on! (I admittedly saw your first post about quitting your job, but I didn't comment immediately, then went full social anxiety and didn't comment at all lol)
Either way, point is, congratulations!!!
Congratulations! Your new job sounds like a good opportunity and the area is wonderful. Sounds like you made a great move!
Congratulations!
New pic threw me off, but I quite like it. Good to hear life is going well.
