What on earth is going on with you Verity?
Hi guys. Sorry for being extremely silent and not answery or commenty. I haven’t fallen off the edge of the Earth though I am pretty much heading there today. I haven’t been on the radar the last few weeks because I have been insanely busy trying to get a million things finished before my parents and sister arrived a few days ago. I thought I might get some time to post but it has just been impossible 
.
And today we are heading off to Iceland!!!! Iceland! Hurrah! I am super excited but it does mean I am pretty sure I won’t be connected for the whole 10 days. I am happy because that means leaving my PhD behind for a while but sad because it also means leaving Mhalwae behind. But I think I am going to get really inspired because Iceland is sort of like Mhalwae, in a way though a bit colder I think (it is summer there now but it is still 12degs today ).
And then what happens. Well, I am back for one night and then off to Budapest with two friends from Australia. And that is for four days. But I am still not really back then because I have one day and then I am heading to a conference in America (New Hampshire) followed by a few days of holiday to Niagara falls on the Canadian side with a friend.
So what this basically means is a summer hiatus from Mhalwae . I hope you guys will still want to read when I come back to it, which will be around the middle of August. I am going to miss you guys! I hope you all have a lovely summer too (if you are on the side of the world where there is actually summer right now).
Byee!
Thanks for the update, Verity.
I was just starting to wonder how you were, though I suspected it was just a heavy dose of real life. I’ve been forced to deal with a bit of that myself lately.
So let go of all that and have fun! Iceland — how I envy you. 12 degrees! I hear they have other cool stuff there, but 12 DEGREES! *melting over here*
Maybe you will have some extra inspiration once you are in a situation where you CAN’T write and are freed from the pressure to come up with something. Though it seems like your problem is more like mine: too many ideas and not enough time to write them all. Oh well, at least you ought to come back energized and all answery and commenty and writery.
Have fun!
Take it from me, leaving your PC/Sims 2 obligations for a hiatus is a major breath of fresh air. I have come back from Key West and a month break revitalized and with a better idea of what I want to do. I hope you enjoy your trip to Iceland… and how nice that your family will be with you, too and your other trips, as well. Geeze, girl. Do PhDs over there denote lots of travel or what? You should have been a photographer or something, though I think you move around more than they do. You lucky lady. Have fun and you know we’ll still be here, waiting to find out what you’ve got in store for the poor folks of Mhalwae!
What a little jet-setter you are! Heehee, you are always travelling all over the world and I am so very jealous! Have a very safe and fun-filled trip, and hurry back to Mhalwae and your readers. We’ll be patiently waiting…well maybe not patiently, but definitely waiting your return!
