Well I won’t be unsubscribing! Never quite get around to reading every post, but like the ones I do read.
I’m rubbish at names for things - but for your blog, the word phoenix popped into my head. Jo the Phoenix? 😁 Just thinking about the idea of resurgence somehow. X
The memory thing is entirely normal. You might want to use Google Gemini Live to allow you to record any reminders needed through the day. Great writing as always!
Memory? Welcome to post menopause! The trick is to make lots of lists!
I’m so sorry you’re still feeling like this, but it’s a process. You’ll grieve, be angry, upset but you’ll come out the other end stronger,bolder in touch with your wisdom & looking forward to doing g whatever you want with your life.
This age for women is so incredibly powerful. We won’t take anyone’s crap anymore, we don’t suffer fools, we just take our innate strength & create lives we love.
You are such a wonderful human being Jo & you deserve every happiness, which I know you are on the way to finding.
She’s the rest of the trauma & step forward with positivity & make your dreams come true.
As a 70 year old writer I would just like to say you will get through the menopause and once it is over you may well feel great. Secondly, yes, you are a writer. It has nothing to do with making shedloads of money or even getting published. You write therefore you are a writer.
Reading your post and the comments I feel under pressure to think of a title too Lololol.
Erm, nie wiem ... I think you'll find something, because after all, it emerges from you and yours.
How about "Crack me open" ?! 😆 references to madness and exposure and rebirth. Sorry, I don't mean to tease.
I think you've found your thang - it's writing, surely? You love it. And the writing journey is right here, no?
Certainly everything is tainted by the menopause. I'm not sure where that leads to at the moment, being in it now as well. I have read about and have experienced the brain fog thing. It does improve. Google it.
For what it's worth, the terrible attack you suffered seems to be your recurring theme and antagonist (not surprisingly). Although it's also a catalyst and it's cracking you open ... dare I say embrace that part of it? Mind you, what do I know 🤷🏼♀️
But here you are, sharing what you know. And it's interesting to read 🩷

On titles: 'Jo's Blog' is exactly that - no more, no less. Why not save any more eye-catching title for your book?
Good luck with the writing.
Thanks Martin.
