It actually took slightly longer than I thought it would to get over here and start writing again. After closing Lady Shanny Says I felt free in a way. Free of having to chronicle what was going on in my life. In a way I felt like I got my privacy back. The thing is that I need to write for myself. It’s my outlet and it’s how I let things work themselves out. Aside from that it’s also how I keep track of events and circumstances. It’s a diary of sorts although I have never been able to commit myself to writing in a diary. I knew I would come over here, I’ve had this address for awhile now. What I didn’t know is when I would feel the urge to come over here. I guess the urge has struck!
I’m not entirely certain what this website is going to turn out to be yet. I have stuff going on in my life that I need to work out, stuff that I want to talk about, pictures that I want to post. What I don’t want is for this to turn into the old website at a new address. The other site was so much of who I am that it might be a bit of a struggle finding a new angle to write from. I’ll find that angle though.
I haven’t decided if I’m giving this website address out just yet. I do know that if I do give it out that I will not allow comments. The comments became a bit of an issue on the other site because I was pouring my heart out and in some instances I wouldn’t get a single comment but I saw people reading the posts and in other instances I would get what felt like unsolicited advice. So this site? No comments. Also I will only be writing here when the urge strikes me. Usually that’s pretty often but I found that with the readership that I had on the old website that I was feeling a lot of pressure to put up posts on a very regular basis and posts that meant something or moved people. I’m going to run this site as more of a partnership within my life rather than a force driving my life.
That’s it for now. I had to just dip my toes in the water and introduce myself to this new website. Consider us fast friends!
