That’s unfortunate to hear, especially as I’m a recent convert to your posts. But – breaks are necessary and needed even when writing, so come back when you’re feeling into the practice again.

Re: your comment about drawing comments through controversy and arguing – most definitely true, if for nothing else the fact that one group of people will be sorely tempted to shout down another group of people bent on doing the same. That’s at least 3 comments per post, boiled down to “you suck”, “no YOU suck”, “no YOU suck more”.

The little blog I run is actually those blogs’ antithesis, but as a result drives less traffic. But that’s fine. There’s a lot of bad on the internet, but plenty of good if you know to find it and keep it close to you.

I’ve enjoyed your musings and will miss them tremendously.

You will be greatly missed. Take care!

Although fo some strange reason I don’t have Dragonchasers in my google reader, I always read through your posts on a bi-daily basis.

From first hand experience, I know how good it is to take a break from writing…
