Every time I attend a workshop on the Oregon Coast, I have
revelations. (Suddenly Florence + the Machine’s “No Light, No Light” is stuck
in my head.) Things I need to do, to change, in order to get closer to my
goals.
As Gru says in Despicable
Me, “Light. Bulb.”
Sometimes they’re life changes, sometimes they’re little
things, sometimes they’re things I’ve heard before and thought I understood,
but apparently I wasn’t in the right place to internalize and truly get.
For example, splitting out my writing and production
schedules. I’m a writer and I’m a publisher, and those things need to be
separate. I’m a weird person who likes
admin stuff like book design. But the writing has to come first, be the focus,
before I can even think about playing with the production of that writing.
And another example, of a small thing: It takes time to post
here and to the News section of my
website. So why am I still maintaining a blog here?
Helloooo, cosmic two-by-four.
So, this post serves as a fond farewell to Blogspot, which
has been a lovely home for many years. I imagine it’s on a ship and I'm standing
on the pier, waving my white lace handkerchief at it. Bon voyage!
And I invite you all to sail with me (yes, I’ve totally
mixed up that metaphor. Move on.) over to the News area of my website, where
henceforth you will find my blog posts. Come on over and let’s party! Virtual
champagne for everyone!
