Dear friends and fellow writers,

After so many wonderful experiences and connections here on Medium, it’s time for me to move on to new adventures — mainly making “later in life, small-town clean romance” novels my priority and full time career, but with some other creative goodies happening, too.

Apart from First Line Fiction weekly prompts until Arpad is able to replace me (latest post from me Aug. 26), I’ll be ‘gone’ as of July 1.

I know how it feels when we discover that a fellow Medium writer has just vanished without a word — and no way of knowing how to connect — so I thought it appropriate to leave this note for you.

This platform — more specifically, this community — has been a lifeline to me through some pretty dark and difficult times in the past four years. I’m so grateful for all the support and inspiration I’ve found here, and for several friendships that have continued to blossom off Medium.

While I’m leaving this platform, I’m not leaving the planet! If you want to stay in touch, you can still find me sharing my journey, insights, and a bit of magic over on Patreon (it’s free to join, no account needed).

If you want to stay on top of new releases of my novels under my pen name, Ruby Ashford, you can follow me on Amazon.

You can also connect with me through my website (all links below).

Thank you so much for being a part of my journey here!

Wishing you whatever you wish for yourself, and I hope to see you in the next chapter! 💜
