Monday, January 1, 2024 To Be Or Not To Be…

~ Foodiness

Happy New Year! I’ve been pondering whether or not to continue with this blog. I’d sure love to hear about it if you’ve found the content valuable enough that you’d miss it if it went away.

I started Lynniebeemuseoday in 2018 as a continuation from my previous blog (Further Up and Further In) with the intent of writing more often using a wider breadth of genres (true story, fiction, children’s fiction, poetry, musings, art and craft adventures, etc.). One of my 2024 goals will be to take some of the things I wrote and attempt to get them published in some fashion.

I’ve enjoyed having this connection with you, especially those of you who took the time to comment and respond, which makes all this blog posting worthwhile. I was often surprised by what emerged the times when I sat down to write without any real idea ahead of time what I was going to say. The discipline of daily writing was really good for me, and if you were blessed by some of what came forth, all the better.

It’s not a question of whether or not I’ll continue writing. Writers must write! Would you like for me to continue sharing my writing, photography and art with you?

The chickadee sings
Like all birds do
Different notes tell just one story
Listen, listen
With ears of faith:
“To God alone be the glory.”

I’ll probably delete this in the morning…

Too old to figure out how to start a blog; too young to give up entirely.

  3. Hey, Lynnie! My vote is that you continue the blog in any way the Lord is leading you to do so – poems, photos, stories (btw what’s going on with Figgy Frog and friends..?).
    Whatever you decide, my friend, I will be a faithful reader of whatever you write or share!
    Blessings in the New Year!🙂

    1. I’m pretty sure I know the identity of this “anonymous” commenter. Thanks for the encouragement! The final installment of Fig Newton and friends is scheduled to be finished this month. I’m so excited!

  4. I would happily continue to read what you write. But you are the one who is sharing and I have to believe that is not always easy. And I’m pretty sure it must take a lot of effort to keep up regularly with your writing.

    1. There’s definitely more effort in writing for a blog than just my regular journaling, but it’s a good kind of effort. I’m encouraged by your response, thanks! ❤️

    and Karl as well.
    If the posts don’t come super regularly, I understand.
    We are blessed by what and when you write!
    Thank you so much sharing your heart and your many gifts!
    I thank God for that!

  6. I don’t comment often but I love reading what you write. Why? It helps me stay connected to you. It informs me of ideas, places that I sometimes or never would have been exposed to otherwise.

    Having said that, there is a season for all things. I will pray that the Lord will guide your decision.

  9. Your Alaskan audience may not be a consistent follower, but when I do take a moment to read a report or musing from time to time — I do indeed feel blessed. Thank you for your keen and clever observations, for sharing your heart so often, and for all the time it must take to ponder and compose words about the beautiful and whimsical little joys of life…
    If you continue to write, I will continue to read 😊
