Please don’t watch this space…

This weblog has been quiet because a good friend of mine died suddenly last week. It’s been an intense few days, and I might share some of hard lessons I have learned through this miserable experience, but this is not the time. (And probably not the place.)

I’ve come back from the hometown funeral with some huge and unyielding deadlines in front of me, and very little time and even less headspace to deal with it all. For the time being, weblogging is unthinkable. If I’m still standing next week, it will be a huge victory. At this point, I’ll settle for a draw.

    Hi Brain, sorry to hear of your loss. Hope you’re able to handle your deadline pressures (and then actually take a breather over the holidays). All the best…

  6. I’m very sorry to learn of your loss. I will remember you and your friend in my thoughts and prayers. I hope the winter break brings solace and rest, though I know loss never goes away entirely.

    Hang in there.

    Hi Brian,

    Thoughts from Australia, it sounds like you’re having a very difficult time, don’t worry about the draw.

    Yours, James
