And We’re Back . . .

So the blog and website are stable again.  Not in their final form, but at this point, stability is a HUGE step forward.   I like the simple interface for now, it’s a big improvement for tablets and phones, and the whole mess has been a wake-up call for both the blog and website.   So here’s what’s changed:

The Jenny Crusie Website: I’m still cleaning up the place, and I haven’t gotten to the Books tab or redone the Bio yet, but I sorted all of the other miscellaneous stuff into two tabs, “For Readers” and “For Writers.”   “For Readers” has collages, food from the books, soundtracks, etc, a lot of the same stuff that was there before, some of which still needs revamped.  “For Writers” now has four new subsets: “Essays,” which was there before, “Workshop PDFs” and “Argh Ink Writing Posts,” both of which are in progress and will be for some time (that’s a lot of stuff), especially since I have to wait until Mollie gets things re-ordered on the back end to put in the links so that when we shift to the permanent new domain, I don’t lose the thousand links I set up.   So the website will be a lot more valuable to writers in the future.  

Argh Ink: And then there’s here.  Once I clear out the archives and make sure they’re all categorized and formatted (and deleted if they weren’t all that valuable to begin with), I’ll have a better idea of how to shape this blog in the future.  The categories will change again, and I’ll do better with the tags, but mostly it’s just re-organizing and house-cleaning here.  If you have any requests for the blog, now would be a good time to make them before I wander off to do something else.  Like, oh, write a book.

The Writing/Romance Project:  Some of you may have noticed the fourth link on the “For Writers” tab on the website.  That’s an experiment I need feedback on, so of course I’m turning to you.  Back to you on that tomorrow.

So thank you very much for sticking with us through the upheaval.  Like all turning points it was traumatic, but it’s turned us in a new direction and we’re happy about it.  Nothing but good times ahead, Argh People.
