The Electronic Writer blog has been silent since last September, but that is about to change. There are several reasons for the silence:

1. My writing has been divided amongst venues. I have organized my writing into categories and only my political writing was published on the blog.

2. My efforts towards my business have doubled. Putting more of myself into my work has had trade-offs. The clearest trade-off has involved my time. And, while I have done things to increase productivity, I have just spent more time working.

3. My soul has been divided. I have been distraught with the situation of things both at home and abroad. As a result, the politics of my political blog have been on hold. I have read more poetry than news–and without reading the news, it is hard to be informed, and without being informed, there is nothing to write about.

4. My fire had dwindled.

With this new incarnation of the Electronic Writer blog, the writing is going to be much less specialized. In fact, it will be more representative of myself–diverse, interested in everything, seeking dissonance and the truth, and easily distracted . . . .

Feel free to comment, make requests, or lambast me if you must. Some blogs are intended to be deeply personal and private. This is not one of them. Enjoy.
