When I planned to take a gap year in order to work on various creative projects between high school and college, I expected it to be a restful time, just like summers used to be during my time in high school. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Considering the increasing number of hours I spend at my job and the immense amount of research one has to put into college applications, I’m not awash in free time that I can spend on blogging and writing (even though I have done what I consider to be some pretty impressive graphic design and digital art in the past couple of weeks).

All that to say, I never intended it to be this long before I published my first “real” blog post on A Handful of Quietness. “Real”, in that I finally gathered the time to look up how to make it so that readers could subscribe to my posts (it wasn’t hard or time-consuming at all; I don’t know why I thought it would be).

That’s the perfect segue into where I tell you to please subscribe (using the button that I think will show up at the bottom of this post, or the floating button at the bottom left corner of your screen–you see it, don’t try to pretend it isn’t there. 😉 )

If you came here from my garbage dump of an old blog, I sincerely thank you. I mean to put so much more effort into A Handful of Quietness. If you’re interested in being notified of future random posts like this one, book reviews promoting indie authors you’ve maybe never heard of, and writing and cover design updates, please subscribe. I know I will be grateful for every single subscriber I get (except the spammy bot ones).

Until next time,

R.M.W.
