The Anatomy of Hiatus
Main Entry : hi·a·tus
Pronunciation : \hi-’a-t?s\
Function : noun
Etymology : Latin, from hiare to yawn — more at yawn
Date : 1563
1 a: a break in or as if in a material object : gap <the hiatus between the theory and the practice of the party — J. G. Colton> b: a gap or passage in an anatomical part or organ
2 a: an interruption in time or continuity : break; especially : a period when something (as a program or activity) is suspended or interrupted <after a 5-year hiatus from writing> b: the occurrence of two vowel sounds without pause or intervening consonantal sound (Merriam-Webster)
So you don’t know what to write and you said it loud and clear on your first sentence. Maybe you’re just too ennui to post something. Or too busy and didn’t even have a chance to read your feed subscription. Maybe you’re having a munchausen headache or in a relaxing coma. All in all, you just want to say it, “I’m on hiatus”
But really, do you want to do it? Or what you really want is to tell stories again? Or tell the world that you still here. What’s the reason behind your hiatus? Is it because you’re moving your home? Or, perhaps you’re simply moving on.
Or you want your reader to miss you? So you can say “I’m back.” , “Hello world!“, or “Miss me?”
Realize though, you can still make a good posting. You can reuse your old archives, posting some pics, or posting some inspirational lyrics. If you’re talented, you can write your memories about garden, departure, infinity, faces, windows, and your love and polish it to become a poem.
Do you still want to go hiatus?

you know, you use some words that make me open my dictionairy… very good Jhon.. =)
btw, some people, they just dont want to be recognized as in Hiatus, so they just post same old stories again.. and again…make us, as a reader, so damn ennui.. but when we tell ‘em, they become so more defensive and said ” if you dont like it, then dont read! get out of my blog ! “..
whereas, we only want to give a good critics, dont we?
