Fond Farewell
August 27th, 2009 by Writer Unboxed
Some of you may have already learned that valued contributor Rosina Lippi is bending her life in a new direction. As she wrote in her weblog:
“The reason for this sudden departure is fairly straight-forward: I’m stepping away from writing for the foreseeable future.”
It’s never easy when a fellow writer leaves the profession, and we feel much sadness over the news. Rosina, we loved having you as part of the WU family. We wish you well on your endeavors, and a speedy return to writing.

Good Luck Rosina!
Aw… Good luck with everything, Rosina!
You’ll be well and truly missed, Rosina. Good luck to you.
Sorry to hear that your family is hit by the economic downturn. I hope you will be back when things change.
This is indeed bad news. All the best Rosina – I love your books.
I’m sad to hear this, Rosina. I hope the new direction offers all sorts of rewards, and provides you with a heap of raw material you can use when you come back to writing.
Oh Rosina. I’m so sorry to hear that. I have been fortunate in that I’m able to stay home and write, but every time it looks like I’ll have to go back to work I feel a little hole open up in my heart. The writing will never be gone, but changing priorities is so painful when it cuts so close to the soul. All the best in your endeavours, and I’ll be first in line to pick up Endless Forest.
Rosina’s weblog was part of my daily routine, and it’s almost as if a good friend has moved away. Hope to see her back here soon.
