[Weekly Whimsy] Whammy


edit/update: WOW!!!!! What a Whammy for ME! Ron over at FTW announced a some-what comeback....


[Welcome to Weekly Whimsy! Why write when words have withdrawn...]

“Remember when it used to go like this…” Lauryn Hill, That Thing

Today is a day of  strange liberation. 

 It’s certainly got a sense of melancholy and some serious nostalgia, but it’s very freeing too. Why?

I’ve decided not to write any more Weekly Whimsy posts.

I looked at my posting history, and I have 24 of those babies put out there for your viewing pleasure. I loved writing each and every one. I loved coming up with the cool themes, the great alliterations, the ingenious ways to touch on a variety of topics most gamer dudes would never encounter or examine seriously. I loved crafting those compositions, finding the appropriate pictures and touching those of you that read in some way.

I don’t like being tied to it. I don’t like the forced and less-than natural feeling some of the posts had (to me). I don’t like how many Sunday mornings I got up early to write rather than hanging out with TheDude. Some weeks I was ahead of the game and had my stuff done before I went to bed Saturday, but most of the time I was winging it early in the am.

Don’t despair… I’m not giving up the writing overall- it just won’t be scheduled for every Sunday anymore. I’ll post whatever, whenever; truly the essence of whimsy. You can’t put a timeframe on inspiration, and so I won’t. I’ll just write when the mood strikes me and you can enjoy it when it comes.

I love writing, and I plan to continue bringing great content. I just need to do it on my own schedule, so that I can enjoy my husband, my kids, my dog, my store, my community, my gaming and my friends in a way that works for me.


Be Well,

Final Schedule and much more

Hey guys,  gals, unicorns and others,

Thank you very much while I took a quick break to work out some kinks in my schedule/home life. I think I have some really good things coming at you, and hope you'll enjoy.

Just to let you know, I did not play 40K this week- I was pretty sick and just was not up to moving my doodz  around the table.(I really wasn't up to very much of anything- I was pretty miserable.) My partner got to try out his shiny knights and seemed to have a very good time, though so all was not lost.

Starting next week, my WOW schedule will be as follows:
Wed: 40K
Fri: RPG

You'll see me every Sunday at HOP writing the New Kid In Town column, all about being a new 40K player.

I'm also pleased to announce that I'll be writing twice a month for Miniature Wargaming Conversions! Team Awesome wanted me! Woohoo! Look for that column on Saturdays (twice a month) beginning on April 23.

I hope I'm done messing with my schedule for a while- I really want to get into a groove and lay out some stellar stuff for you, as you guys are great readers.

Be Well,
'Lo
