A Brief Update

First of all, I'd like to say thanks to those people who check out this blog, regularly or not. I've been going through my old posts (I'm contemplating moving this blog from Blogger altogether for various reasons. None of them have anything to do with any dissatisfaction with the service offered by Blogger, which has made me a blog addict over the past several months; rather, they have to do with the fact that I'm thinking that I have a server and my own blogging tool and might as well use them.

Over the weekend I've been importing the posts here over to the new blogging tool. I'm not sure how it's going to work yet, and so this will remain for some time to come the main site for Essays on Life. However, expect for this blog to be transferred over the next few months to a new site where I can do more things -- sort the posts according to category, for instance, to enable people to search for topics more readily, and an easier way of creating links than Blogger currently offers. Don't expect my Blogger presence to disappear, though; I maintain four blogs here at the moment, and don't have any intention of moving those in the short term. But Essays is a major undertaking, and I'd like to exercise some more editorial and other control over it.

For those of you who took the time and trawled through old posts -- and even read them and took the time to comment! -- many thanks. I've gone through and read your comments at last -- some of them are over seven months old, my apologies. Q, many thanks especially to you, with your great comment on Junkanoo, and others. I've seen them, and will be replying over time.

In the meantime, watch this space. When I'm ready to move to the new blog, you'll know. And till then, keep the faith.
