As I mentioned in my previous post, I’ve been working on a revival for this blog. This past month and a half, I’ve been diligently working on the structural and functional redesign of this site as well as creating and revising new content to post.
And the time has finally come to start posting all that new content.
Starting next week, I will be posting content three times a week:
Mondays will be fiction and quick reads.
Wednesdays will be nonfiction.
Fridays will be reviews and recommendations.
Since I want to allow space for other voices to be shared here, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and the weekend will be reserved for any content created by someone other than me.
Which most likely means that MWF will be the only consistent new content for a while, but that’s okay.
Because…if you build it, they will come.
In addition, this content will also be related to the theme of the upcoming month: love and relationships.
Yes, I know it’s cliche.
But it’s February, the month of cheesy demonstrations of love and unexpected snow storms that snap the power lines and force you to snuggle up to the nearest warm body to stay alive.
In other words, I’m choosing to lean into the spirit of the collective consciousness–if only to keep things simple.
With that being said, here’s a sneak peak of what’s to come:
