Message to the Bloggers (you know who you are)

I'm creating a new blog. It will be private (initially), though I may make it public down the road, depending on how courageous I am feeling.

I want my blog to be my journal, as I've been keeping some form of diary since I was eight. Recently, I have felt the need to censor myself. As much as I would like to believe that the only people my blog is reaching include those listed on my reading list and my mother, I have realized lately that maybe my audience is broader than I thought.

If you are part of that core group of bloggers that I have been writing for for the past four years and would like to continue following me, in all my brutal honesty, please leave your email address in the comments here and I will send you an invite to my new space.


"When nothing is owed or deserved or expected
And your life doesn’t change by the man that’s elected
If you’re loved by someone, you’re never rejected
Decide what to be and go be it
There was a dream and one day I could see it
Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out."
