Blog

  • Starting over

      ​​I have had a blog over at weebly for about 13 years now. I haven’t written on it in over two years. There are multiple reasons for this, but part of the issue has been the platform itself. Therefore, after getting some advice, I am moving everything over here. I may or may not post all the stuff I had archived. It seems a little silly. Perhaps I’ll just leave it there, or perhaps it is time to just let it go. I’m moving the domain to wordpress, and hopefully people will be able to find me here.

      I am realizing that while I have changed and grown immensely in the past 15 years — I apparently had a blogger site before weebly, and before that, it was livejournal — there is something essentially me at the core that is still there.

      What has not worked well for me, is trying to monetize my interests in fairy tales and biography work. My storytelling career flatlined with the pandemic, and my professional life has, full circle, returned to education. Perhaps it never left. So here, you will find me talking about what I do, what I read, what I think, who I am… And perhaps there will be stories, or poems, or photos.

      Perhaps it will just be a few words a week, or a day…

      But I’m starting over again, and wondering how fresh, how new, it can really be, when it is still me writing it.

      So here we are. No substack. No patreon. No need to monetize or hustle. Just words and pictures. And maybe if you want me to work with your kid, you’ll contact me. Or maybe you want me to write something. Or tell a story. Or sing a song…

      It’s all just me, still. Here. Where I’ve always been.
