When I first started writing on CANN in 2009, my biggest goal was to post positive news about Clay Aiken. We wanted a site where both fans and people who knew little about Clay could read about what he was doing.

I feel very proud of what we have done and excited to continue that goal.

That being said, I will be taking a short break at this time. As many of you know, my dear husband has recently been placed in Hospice Care. This is a time when I need to use my energy to make his days as wonderful as I can.

I also know that Clay is working with a fabulous team that is getting ready for his next project. This is a great opportunity to present Clay as he is today, not how he was on American Idol!! If our goal here is to support Clay, we need to be on the same page.

Of course, if there are big announcements, if appropriate, I will post them immediately. Again, we are not stopping CANN…we will just adapt to what is going on with Clay’s career. I was pleased that we were able to adjust to “Political Clay” and we will adjust again when we return in a few weeks.

My biggest fear is that you will all cancel your memberships and forget all about us. That would make me very sad!! CANN is not going away and we still intend to have lots of fun. We will continue to look back at the important events in Clay’s career and forward to all the wonderful things in his future.

And…we will support Clay as he continues his career.

I am already getting excited!
