This post is to let everyone know that I am taking a break from writing for a couple of months.  Earlier today I saw a post by a colleague who mentioned that he was taking the next couple of months off to work on the writing of his book – and – I thought to myself – that sounds like a wonderful idea!

The book that I want to complete is closely related to this blog.  The planned title is Human Beings Anonymous.  The original working title was Living as Mustard Seeds in Cracked Clay Pots, but somehow when the other title emerged I knew that is was right for me!

This book comes from my personal experience of working with people – people who know that they have an addiction and are in the journey of recovery – and – people who do not believe that they have any addiction and cannot imagine why they might need to consider living life with the guidance of The Twelve Steps.  When I started to get that response I immediately knew that it was time to begin the book.

I have already taught the material to people a couple of time and hope to convene another session of gatherings here in Austin in the fall.

More later – this blog will return in August – in the meantime – grace and peace to all!!
