The Beginning of The End

Well, this is a while coming.  I'm going to close this blog down.  Typepad has been a great hosting site, but it's costing me, and if I am not going to blog, I will switch to the blogger blog for my occasional posts.  I hope to regain the impetus and start blogging again at some point.  But seeing as I am not even visiting and commenting on my blog friends' blogs, it seems wise to close up shop, at least temporarily.

Let's face it.  As my college professor said, if you aren't writing, you aren't really a writer.  So I have been a prolific blogger for the past several years, but not really a writer.  I need to reach back and grab that part of me and get it restarted.  (After I raise a couple of rambunctious puppies to semi-adulthood.  When I have a spare few minutes from working in my yard, working to earn a living and doing home improvement projects.  Oh, and playing silly time-wasting games on Facebook.)

In any case, I plan to gradually move the content from the old blog to blogger.

Please come and see me for new content at the original Writtenwyrdd blog, writtenwyrdd.blogspot.com.

Tah, darlings, for now.  This blog will remain active for a few weeks, and I'll link forward it if possible to the old blog site when it goes off line.

Got it all set...not sure I was subscribing to this one via the e-mail, but I got the feed and became a follower to your new old blog.

Cool! I am not sure how you do it, either!

As long as you'll still be blogging some! I do like reading about the dogs.

Seems like I do more posting on Facebook than here, though, Stacy.

making time to write is good. and if blogging is getting in your way, that's bad.

hope you'll keep in tough.

I just switched my subscription to the Blogspot blog. Looking forward to seeing you again, once you get back to writing. Have fun with the pups in the mean time. [hugz]

I know what you mean about blogging vs. writing. Sometimes we need to take a hiatus from one to work on the other, and I hope the writing goes very well. Also good to hear you'll be moving content to the new site.

I hope to import it over there eventually, but I don't know if I have the tech savvy to accomplish that at all, Marian! I'll be about periodically, but I just can't spend time blogging any more. I hope to get back into writing soon, too. Maybe for NaNoWriMo...

I've added your new/old blog to BlogBridge.

I hope you get some good writing done now the puppies are bigger!

[writtenwyrdd]

At least I have had time to think about it. But I have to pay attention to the boys still. It's a lifestyle, having dogs. Cats are easy; dogs are time intensive. And I don't multi-task well at all!

[Whirlochre]

Oh no! It's like someone dis-invented shirts!

Hope tgo see you over at your new old blog soon.

[Carolyn Crane]

Oh, I just saw this! Well, I totally support you. You've worked out a lot of smart things about fiction here an amassed a wealth of information, for the benefit of us readers, and for yourself, to, so I get changing your focus. I'll look you up at the new spot. Good luck!!

[writtenwyrdd]

Hi Carolyn! Yes, there's a lot of good content here. I may keep it up even longer in order to keep the comments, because that's where I find a lot of value, in the discussion.

I have to figure out how to move the posts with comments, however.
