Life Update - A Break

By Mark Ginocchio May 09, 2012 Uncategorized 1 Comments

I know the gap between my las post hasn't been that noticeable, but it's been long enough for me to come clean about a few things. I'm going to be taking a little break from posting on Chasing Amazing. How long? Could be a week or two, or maybe a month or two, I'm not 100 percent sure yet. All I do know is I've hit a little bit of a wall creatively and I need to work through it at my own pace.

I've been doing this site consistently for well over a year and of course I haven't succeeded in my "chase" yet, so of course I'll be back. In the interim, if Twitter is your thing, I suggest you follow Chasing Amazing as I'll be checking in over there and I'll definitely let you know when I decide to get back to work here. We can also talk about Ends of the Earth, and anything else Spider-Man or comic book related.

Hope nobody gets too upset here and thinks I'm throwing in the towel. Like Spider-Man, I'll always be back, just need to work some things out on my end.

Sorry to learn you are taking a break, but we will be here for you when you return. Blogging can be a chore and if you need to walk away for a bit, no one is going to fault you for that. I find I can manage once a week or so at Longbox Graveyard but there are definitely times when I wonder if I can keep the string going. I find it helps to have regular Wednesday columns and to get several blogs ahead, so I can take "blog vacations" for a week or two and readers are none the wiser. Good luck, see you soon I hope!
