Member-only story
Resume transmission
Can anyone hear me?
It’s almost half a year since I published anything here, and a year since May 2021 — the month in which I published to Medium every day. The desktop site has changed, my membership has lapsed, and in writing this I feel like I’m standing in a lonely field, howling at the moon and wondering if my pack will howl back.
If I’m honest, I don’t know why I stopped posting. I think, in the end, it boiled down to what can only be summed as a feeling of I don’t want to. So I didn’t.
I’m a firm believer that unless something is essential or important, if it’s not fun, don’t do it. Medium stopped being fun for a while, and while writing is important to me, writing here specifically is not.
But today, I felt the urge. It’s one part inspiration, one part procrastination, one part feeling like maybe I have something of me to share again.
This is my broadcast, my howl, my wave to a stranger across the teeming Internet. I’m here now, and I hope you are too.
