Happy 2015 everyone!

And yeah. That whole Tumblr thing? It SO didn't work out for me. And not for lack of trying. (Frustrating, trying to make things look the way I want, trying. Lots of it.) Turns out, I'm a blogger/wordpress girl at heart. Who knew?

On top of having a hard time figuring out how to make Tumblr work the way I wanted, there was that whole not-having-anything-to-say issue for quite a while. It wasn't so much writer block as it was blogging block. And I think there were definitely reasons for that. Lots of reasons. Big fat reasons. Which I'll probably get into eventually, but for now, I really just want to say...

Hi. How are you? You've been missed. Loads.

Okay, well, that isn't exactly *ALL* I have to say. (Is it ever?) Because what's a blogger return without an interview and giveaway? NOTHING. It's absolutely nothing. Or at the very least, it's nothing Kristi-like.

Which is why my friend Erin Fletcher has agreed to be my first interview victim guest on the blog next week. We'll be talking all things writing - process, software, favorite books...be sure to stop by and check it out next Friday! I'll also be giving away a copy of her book, WHERE YOU'LL FIND ME. And trust me, you want this book. Gaze upon the beautiful cover of perfection:

Until then... you all really have been missed. It's good to be back. And I'm looking forward to 2015 and all it has to bring!
