I thought I should respond to a couple of very kind comments asking me when I was going to post more "Lost."
All was going very well with that, actually...I was all gung ho in December. And then, whammo, we all get hit broadside by Heath's horribly untimely and tragic death.
It's taken me a while to recover. I cried a lot more than I thought I would (I'm a Jake girl, first and foremost, after all), and I've stared at a lot of blank screens over the past couple of months. But then, I guess I shouldn't be that surprised, because I have never been able to write without fully immersing myself in the world of the characters, and "Lost" is so much about Ennis' self-exploration during his grieving process over (he thinks!) losing Jack. His emotions are mine when I write him and it hurt far too much for a long time there.
I also had constant reminders...I was in Heath's industry for many years and while I never had the privilege of meeting him personally, I do know quite a few people who knew and worked closely with him. They were all basket cases, as were we.
I think I am getting to the place where I can write about him again. Hopefully have an update soon.
Thank you for bearing with me. xoxoxoxo
