The Long Way Home
What two years can do to a person... It's strange to think it has been only two years since I began writing on this blog. Today, as I now have a full-time job at an NPR affiliate, I find myself recollecting on how it is possible that I got here. I am fortunate to have had professors and people in the industry who have all thought I was worthy of a chance. To all of you, thank you. I also know I have the best mother on the face of the earth - and I know there are many of you out there who would argue that yours is the greatest of all - and isn't it wonderful that we share that? But something has changed in me. I can say I've lived in another state besides Oklahoma. I've moved away. I've left my loved ones. Why? Somedays - I don't know. It's uncomfortable to be by yourself. In foreign city, all alone. On other days it also can be peaceful. But I haven't written a personal or creative sentence in this time frame, since I've moved.
