Hi there, Toi here. Yes, this is still Lit Carnivale, but things have been crazy. Sorry, no intro music today. This is a quick kind of little update. I’m supposed to be releasing content monthly right now just because I had some health issues to address, but I also got hit with a pretty hard blow recently.
My grandmother passed away and that’s been very emotional for me to try to Process on top of dealing with some health issues. And then as I was beginning to think, oh, I need to get back out there, my video editing software disappeared from my computer.
And I am rebuilding all of my templates and content and branding and all that kind of stuff, kind of from scratch. Obviously, I have old video clips that I’m going to be utilizing to help Get things back to where they should be. But it’s going to take some time.
And I wanted to put something out there just to let you guys know I didn’t drop off the face of the planet. I do want to bring Lit Carnivale back. I actually wanted to start posting more frequently. I had decided to do monthly for a while as I was addressing some things.
But I just thought that was just too long of a time. And so my goal in mind was to maybe post every other week. And that was before I realized that I didn’t have the technology to do so. So I am learning a new editing software. I am searching for all of my images and branding and things,
trying to restructure all of that stuff so that I can get back to my regular updates. And yeah, I definitely want to try to get the ball rolling because I do want to launch the Read Local and Read All Over show again in the spring. So We’ll see how that goes.
Just wanted to give you guys an update. So yeah, that’s what’s going on with me. That’s why I’ve been gone and what my current struggle is. But I’m going to keep on keeping on. I’m celebrating happy writing season right now with the Muse Writer Center. And I’m basically trying to get a lot of writing done,
trying to meet some writing goals in the midst of all of this chaos that is happening. So if you want to know more about that, look it up online. But that’s pretty much it. Just wanted to let you know what was going on. And yeah, guys, stay safe. Keep reading. Be blessed.
We’ll return next month with regular Lit Carnivale bookish content, on our new monthly posting schedule.
