For those who have expressed concern about my blog, have no fear. I am not abandoning my blog, but I am currently trying to finish out some other projects (eg, my thesis, a couple other part-time gigs I have) while I consider a lot of potential improvements to my blog. Over the first month and a half, I tried the rebranding-on-the-fly technique, which has seemed to be a terrible idea.
I am not out of ideas--my "blog ideas" word document has barely any strikethroughs in it, I have a slew of partially written blogs and I even a few fully-drafted pieces--and I'll be back in a storm at some point in the near future (like within the next few weeks).
For now, I'm going to post tiny little things that may or may not hold you over.
Greetings from Chicago. I'm at the 2012 Associayion of Writers and Writing Programs conference. Winner for best panel name goes to "Prose & Cons: Teaching Writing in Prison."
Was walking across the SEPTA parking lot at around 1am last night and while listening to this song. Most eventful 2 mins of my life to not actually have any events happen.
