I must warn you that I will not be keeping any schedule with this blog.  There may be more than one entry a day, or there may not be one for weeks.  There is also no theme.  I'll write about what I want, when I want, and how I want. 


I do,however have categories for my blog posts.  "Writing" is for entries directly related to, well, my writing.  "Reviews" is for my comments on movies I see or books that I read.  "Ramblings" is for rants, commentary, musings...a catch-all for anything that doesn't fit the other categories.


New website host

Welcome to my new website now hosted by Weebly. It's still a work in progress as I make the transition. Without going into great detail, I was placed in the position of having to completely rebuild, and could not retain my former template. Therefore, it seemed logical to explore other options. My research led me to use either Wix or Weebly. I'm led to believe Wix has a more flexible site-builder tool, but I have had problems viewing some Wix sites in the past with my preferred browser (Firefox). The browser showed the site as loaded, but the screen was blank. I'm not saying Wix is the cause of the problem. It could easily be something on my end, but it made me hesitant to use their services. So, I went with Weebly.
So far, it's been fairly straightforward and easy to work with. I think I spent more time deciding on a template than I did building the first page.  My book page took more time and I discovered in the process that several of the links to reviews of my books are no longer valid. Sad, since they had some really nice things to say, but such is life on the internet.
I have been able to preserve the content from my old site and will transition as much as I can to this new site. While building my book page, I discovered that some of the tools/widgets I used on the old site were no longer functional (changes in the provider's policy made them expire) so I won't be including them anymore. But I'll do my best to find other ways to make the site interesting.
I have imported most of my old blog posts, (and will work on importing the rest) but unfortunately, I couldn't preserve any of the comments.
