Dear Readers:

This is to let you know that I am leaving BellaOnline as of October 1st. The time for me to pursue other projects has come and I have been given a wonderful opportunity to write for a national news organization. I am the nationally syndicated Relationships columnist for the Examiner both online and in print. It is an opportunity for which I have been hoping and my time must be given to that pursuit.

I also need to devote my time to my other writing ventures as I am in the process of having my book published and have also received other writing offers that will consume much time.

My time here at Bella has been one of happiness and learning. But sometimes you have to move on or stagnate and my writing is too important to me to not be able to give it my best at all times. Too, my writing has gone through changes and I am concentrating on all types of relationships, not just marriage. There's more spice to my writing in the new column.

You can read my column, Relationships, at the Examiner by clicking:

Please stop by the Examiner and give me your input. You know I have always loved hearing from you.

Be happy, be well, be safe. Live well and love your life,

Kristen Houghton
