I know this must be hard for you, Sandra, but you are doing the right thing. Your health is a number one priority. Often your body tells you what it needs, and right now it needs rest and to feel that it is healing. You will be missed on FS, but that is not your top priority.

Enjoy some quiet time doing things that are relaxing, and take time for you. I probably mentioned it before, but many women feel they aren't "entitled" to take it easy and think of themselves first. I am glad Graham is giving you good advice, and I'm sure the rest of your family feels the same way.

Take care of yourself and know you are loved, my friend.

    It is hard, Pam! I hate feeling like this, and I hate not being able to write. So, if I want to start again, I need this rest. Thank you my dear friend. I'll keep in touch. Love you lots. Sandra xx

    Yes, you do need the rest. I don't know if you are doing any reviewing. I'm posting a story for Sun. If it's better you aren't on the site, it is okay. Your health is the most important thing right now. Love you lots, too.

    Aw, Jackie, we might not have met, but that doesn't matter, we are friends and always will be. Thank you for your kind and caring words, my friend, and for that star that has given me more than the medicine I'm having to take! Love you lots, Sandra xxx

Sandra,
Health and family come first. Your extended FanStory family will be here when you return. Although your writing will be missed in your absence, we all look forward to that first day we see your name in our in box once again.

Be well, stay safe, and listen to those that care for you most!

John

    Thank you, John. I'll be back as soon as I'm feeling up to writing again. I'll let that be my judge. Thanks for the caring comments, my friend. Warm hugs, Sandra xx

Sometimes it is said that suffering can power the engines of creativity. I can't occupy Dostoevsky's mind, but I suspect that when he wrote, he was recalling suffering, not living it. In general, we do nothing well whilst we suffer, although I'm sure there are exceptions in which necessity and fortitude find beauty despite pain. I hope that Ms. Mitchell finds again that wonderful spark that links ideas and sound wonderfully, and I add that for me, the pleasure of recognition that is present when I hit something 'that works' is essential for art.

    You're so right, Frank, and I have lost that 'spark' for the moment, but I will get it back. I need to follow my family and my doctor's advice and rest and restore my energy. Thank you, dear friend, for your kind and caring thoughts. :) Sandra xx

Sorry to hear about your health issues I recently beat covid-19 variant too and before that RSV which got into my lungs but nothing will get into my heart and stop me from writing.
...
This was well written rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
...
We all need a break sometimes at least one hour a day alone doing whatever we like to do.
I would suggest that you take that hour alone and write something down.
And, it doesn't have to be posted here.
You can collect it and then post them all at once!
Yes, Sandra that would be beautiful way say to say yo everybody.
Fanstory I'm back!

    Thank you so much, Ricky, I like your idea of writing something each day. I hate not being able to continue my book at the moment, but I'll get there, and I'll be back roaring! :) My problems all began with three doses of Covid, the last one being the most serious. It totally knocked out my defence system. Now to get fit again. Thanks so much for your kindness. Warm hugs, Sandra xx
