I decided a more modern, cleaner look was needed for the season and the new year. After playing around a little I am using the Toujours Theme from Automattic, the people that brings us WordPress.com It’s a theme that is ideal for weddings but with some customization it makes a pretty good all-round theme for just about anything. I like the colors and the ease in which images and text can be seen by the reader.
Let me know what you think. Thanks for your continued interest in my blog and posts.
A friend of mine deleted her Tumblr blog after being harassed by some who had issues with the fandom they feel passionate about. I thought Tumblr was a cool and safe place for everyone. It seems it isn’t. I’m sorry she did that but it seems Tumblr has a way to go to become that place of open mindedness and true freedom of expression. Fandoms are highly personal things so when one is attacked because of uninformed people saying ignorant things then perhaps it’s time to run along. I’m glad to be on WordPress.
I’m glad to be in a mature, levelheaded community of bloggers here. We don’t agree on everything but there is a standard of respect and comradery here that I deeply appreciate. It’s OK to speak your mind and it’s very important to have an open mind to others.I encourage friends on other platforms to give this spot on the web a chance. Keep on blogging good people.
I am finding it difficult to post these days. Not sure why. Maybe it’s a creative dry spell. At the moment I am doing a lot of commenting on blogs. I hope to get back to my normal posting patterns sometime soon. Thanks for sticking with me. I do promise to keep on blogging through it all.
It’s good to see bloggers who haven’t posted in awhile showing up with some new stuff. Their presence is always missed. So to all you prodigal bloggers out there, welcome back. Keep on blogging.
Every blog I post, every tweet I post, every status update I put on Facebook comes from me and in the most genuine way. What you see here and there is what you get. My life, my opinions, my crazy stuff all comes from my heart and head. Now I don’t reveal everything because everyone has the right and privilege of some privacy. Connecting with like-minded people is a great thing and can make this social thing even more fun. I encourage genuine dialogue and genuine posts because it tells the story about unique people who are trying to figure out this crazy world we live in. My friends lets strive to be the genuine articles.
