I haven’t been alone in six years. I write in the middle of the night when I should be sleeping. This was a hard read. Asking for help is hard, making yourself vulnerable when you already feel vulnerable— that doesn’t come naturally or easily to me, or you it seems. But I also know when I can help someone else it feels good, I need to remember that letting someone help, be part of my life, is sometimes an act of service to them. 🩵

Congratulations for putting yourself out there. Much more confronting, and hard work, than being at home writing.

It’s wonderful how you spend your time now. After I had two stillborn babies and my husband and I separated I started my jewellery business and did craft fairs. I always felt jealous of pretty much everyone else who had husbands or family to help, while I lugged everything around myself! Those moments made me feel so lonely! But being alone i have had time to create, my jewellery, my writing, it couldn’t have happened if I’d had a husband!
