I Smell a Merger

Have you ever wanted to kill your blog? No? Never? Well I have. So after months of consideration, I've decided it's time not to kill my blog, but to consolidate it. I've decided to combine my two blogs into one delightful and insightful blog. It's a merger.

We all know sometimes mergers don't work out, and sometimes combining things can be disastrous, (think green jello with carrots and mayonnaise. Yuck!) but I have a feeling this will be a good thing.

As most of you know, keeping a blog current is a lot of work. Keeping two blogs current is . . . well, it's even more work. For all the work it's been, posting my work on The Sprightling Diaries blog has not provided the payoff I had hoped for nine months ago when I set it up. And while I love the look of the blog, and I enjoy sharing my passion for writing, I just don't have it in me to keep two blogs going right now.

This in no way means I've given up my writing dream. On the contrary. With the kids going back to school, I'm going to be taking some writing classes, honing my skills, and hopefully more fully developing my talent. And since I write so much on this blog anyway, I'll just post my writing updates here instead. Check out the side bar for information on my latest work in progress. And if I have any big news to share (like a contract or something--hey, a girl can dream) I'll post it here.

So, you see, I'm not killing my blog, after all. It's merely a merger. And we all know how good a merger can be, right? Think BLT sandwiches, or cookies 'n cream ice cream, or s'mores, or Cherry Coke, or . . .
