Hi everyone,

This summer was a difficult one for me. I suffered from really severe eye trauma that left me unable to see for many weeks. Although most of my vision slowly returned, it will never be what it once was. I don’t want to get into the gritty details, but needless to say this has been really tough on my family and me. But I am lucky to have had a good support system… and am actually rather optimistic about the future.

These past two weeks I’ve slowly started using the computer and reading again. I’ve missed it SO MUCH. As all you bibliophiles will understand, not reading when you really, really want to is absolute torture. I’m happy to be getting back in the saddle, especially since last month I wasn’t sure I ever would!

That’s my quick-and-dirty explanation: apologies for any unanswered emails and unposted guest spots. I am currently catching up on my inbox and will try to get back to you all ASAP!

Love,

Kay

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve been through such a tough time. My vision’s been terrible since childhood, but one of my big fears is losing more of it than I already have; I really hope that you’re still able to get by okay even with reduced vision. Best wishes!
