Hello Dreamwidthers...

haloquinOoooh, I've imported my old Livejournal and, well, I remember now why I stopped! 2011 was a hard time for me and then I shifted my "journaling" to actual regular blogging.
For anyone who finds this before I've tidied up my old posts... I'm in a much much better place now.
I left the alcoholic-in-recovery (he's still sober, we even got married eventually, but it was not the right relationship for either of us!)
I found a job local to me in Wales at an art/stationery shop - and worked there for 7 years.
I now live by the sea, still in Wales, have a new partner (of 6+ years at this point) and feel so very loved.
And I have multiple books published with actual publishers, teach magic online for a living, and have various income streams to balance the books. Oh, and I run storytelling events.
Maybe I'll start writing here - I've been using Insta as a place for long form informal writing on and off since it started tbh and it's a silly place for long text pieces! - maybe I'll just pop in occasionally until I find my people here...
But frankly FAWM is coming up, the social media landscape is changing, and I now use my blog for my business so a less formal place to muse and read other's musings more consciously feels like it might be good.
So... where are the magical musers hanging out?
