And posting to his blog, apparently. I received notice from MySpace this morning that Zach's blog had been updated, and visited to find that he'd not only written a new post, but also deleted all of his previous posts. I held off posting about it, and just left a supportive comment of my own, because I wanted to see how things went. Sure enough, he expanded the post, which had previously consisted of just the first two paragraphs. You can read it for yourself.
As for me, I'm not quite sure what to make of it. He sounds basically like a 16 year old kid who's been through a lot of overwhelming stuff, and it handling it remarkably well, but still needs time to sort it out. There's is one thing that kind of gave me pause, and it was when he referred to LIA/R as being "misrepresented." I thought for a minute that maybe Zach had absorbed some of LIA/R's program, but now I think it's too soon for anyone -- including him -- to tell.
Zach's responded to a few of the many comments he's received since he posted, and seems to be adding to his post as a way of answering other comments more generally. I tend to agree with E.J. Zach probably needs time and space to sort through everything, and probably the best thing the rest of us can do is give it to him.
