Don’t you want me, baby?
Five years ago, I stopped writing Varnish. But I’m back now, apparently announcing my return like a slightly pathetic 1980s pop song.
10 Reasons I Haven’t Written This Blog in Five Years
I was busy having a career.
And even busier trying to survive that career… in tech.
The higher I climbed in my career, the more complicated people I met.
My children grew up, despite my repeated instructions not to.
We acquired a highly opinionated dachshund who now rules the roost.
The world became so absurd that satire briefly seemed redundant.
So I spent an unreasonable amount of time on the sofa, gasping at the headlines and eating cheese on toast.
I did write. I just decided nobody needed to read my laments.
I got very good at telling myself I’d write something for Varnish next week.
But somewhere along the way, I wrote a novel.
So Varnish is back… and I can’t promise I won’t be snarky.
