Time To Say Good-bye

Notre-Dame and the Seine 

My decision to stop blogging at The Paris Traveler was not an easy one to say the least. Throughout the months that I’ve been blogging here I have gained a faithful readership that I am so grateful for, and I want to thank everyone who has made TPT a part of their day, but as most of you who write blogs know, it takes up a good part of your time.

I thought I would be able to juggle everything, but there are just so many hours in a day and I had to put a number of my things on the back burner while I blogged. Some of the projects I need to devote my time to are: doing the art work for a book I want to publish, translating/adapting a series of poems I wrote from English into French, and starting on a novel that I want to write that has constantly been on my mind for a number of months.

The Paris Traveler will be on hiatus for a short time, but I hope that many of you will continue to visit and leave comments. (I know I will!) If anyone feels that they would like to perhaps take over this blog and work for b5media, you can e-mail Mary Jo to find out the details. They’re a great group of bloggers to work for!

More than just calling Paris “home”, even when I’ve spent a number of years living in other countries, I have carried on a “love affair” with this wonderful and exciting city for close to 37 years! I’m sure that whoever takes over TPT will be someone who adores Paris as much as I do! It truly is the most beautiful city in the world!

    Oh Lynn, I am so sad that you are leaving. You will be dearly missed. But I understand. I am a married mother of 3, a university professor, writer, and photographer. I know how hard it is to fit too much into too little time. Still I’m feeling selfish. Your blog was one of the bright spots in may daily routine. I wish you success in all your endeavors and happiness always.

    I wish you the very best in all your projects and have loads of fun too!

    Lynn, Clara mentioned that you’ll be around in “blogland”. Where can I find your blog?

    Thanks Clara, all your comments meant a great deal to me. It let me know more often than not that someone was out there reading what I wrote!

    Temple, I suppose Clara meant when I go to leave comments on her blog (Tips of All Sorts – it’s on the blogroll here at TPT) and other blogs.

    I do hope to go back to my old blog which has been on hiatus since I began TPT, however, that won’t be until after the New Year. (I’ll e-mail you if and when I do!)

    I just don’t have the time right now with all I want to do and the holidays coming upon us very quickly, but thanks so much for asking!
