The time has come for me to take a break. In fact, a long holiday, a la Bilbo Baggins.

The reason?

To pull a Peter Parker (yes, mixing fandom metaphors), “Let me assure you, this, like any other story worth telling, is all about a girl.”

Yes, a girl.

That girl. Karisa Joy. #bestnameever

A fantastic girl who, in fact, I’m going to marry in two short months. Cue reality slamming into me like a two-ton Oliphant.

The wedding bells are ringing. Time’s a-wasting. And plans need making.

So…yeah. Busy, crazy, hectic, intense, challenging, rewarding. My current existence wrapped in a sentence.

Us and a wall, because #trendy?

A million and one things are lined up to bombard my mental capacity, not to mention all the other details already speeding along faster than Shadowfax.

Too many things.

Not. Enough. Time.

Unfortunately, that includes for blogging. So the fabulous rulers of the fair land of SpecFaith Blog have allowed me to declare my leave of absence as I traverse the exciting path stretching into the future.

My goal is to have a hiatus of six months, though life has a tricky way of not cooperating. So it’s possible I’ll be gone longer. However, I shall return once things settle down and I once again have time to wield my pen–erm keyboard–and delve into the myriad joys of speculative fiction.

Until then, Live Long and Prosper.

P. S. She likes books. And fantasy. And Doctor Who. ‘Nuff said. ?

She’s holding “The Horse and His Boy.” #perfectmatch
