The End is Nigh

Well, folks, after a lot of introspection and planning, I've decided to absorb the gonnas as a subsection in my new blog. Yes, they will always exist, but where they were once the biggest part of me, they are now just another facet of the crazy life I lead.

I made this decision quickly, but it was based on months of feeling like I couldn't write anything anymore. Even in the brief moments of spare time I had on rare occasion, nothing came out right; nothing came out me. I realized one day that the reason nothing gelled was because it started getting harder to ground everything in the gonnas. Not everything fit, and that's when I thought to myself: "Who says it is supposed to?" I'd boxed myself in, and decided I wanted out of it ASAP.

So in the next couple of weeks, I'll make the switch to the new blog. I'll provide any information you need as readers, and will make the transition as smooth as possible. I'll still be here writing, actually more so than I have been in past months. Things might look a little different, but change is a good thing.

Maybe I'll even be funny again!

  5. Wait, so this blog will be revamped or there will be an entirely new blog with Gonnas as a subsection? At any rate, I hope you enjoy the process and it generates many new ideas!

    1. T, I'm going to move the blog entirely and the gonnas will be a subsection... however, I'm going to make it possible so that you can, for the time being, be redirected if you have this site bookmarked. That way it gives everyone time to subscribe/bookmark/etc. the new blog! The good thing is that ALL my old posts made it over to the new blog INCLUDING all the comments you or anyone else has ever made... so it will look different, but hopefully feel like home!

  8. You're probably smart to "bite the bullet" sooner rather than later, but change is tough, especially when you have a real life on the side ;-)

    1. Hahah you said it perfectly! It's really hard to change (even though I want to) when I have all my real-life responsibilities to hit first and foremost. Did I mention I have full-time work AND grad school this month?! What's wrong with me?! Ah!
