Jeez, where does the time go? No, seriously…. It’s almost May and this is my second post on the blog this year. So if there’s actually anyone left reading this I’ll be astonished.
Besides the day job, the kids, yadda yadda, blah-blah, my main problem has been a lack of direction, not just on the blog but with my creativity as a whole. I’ve been slowly getting back into music, learning on my feet the production side of things–with a view to actually releasing my own tracks–and coupled with a meltdown pre-Christmas owing to losing a great chunk of writing, I’ve lost a lot of momentum.
And then there’s this other thing nagging away at me… no biggy, just the total annihilation of life as we know it on this planet.
I’ve often blogged about these issues in the past, which has kind of led to a lack of identity on my blog. So in view of that a long overdue overhaul is needed. Moving forward I’m gonna concentrate on the writing over here.
But hang-on…before you leave I need to tell you about the new site dedicated to all things environmental that myself and fellow nature-lover and blogger Kate Johnson have been working on. It’s called the Dodo Express and its still very much a work-in-progress, but we have big plans for it, so pay us a visit and make sure you hit that follow button.
And if you’re a blogger who has a take on the sixth extinction event we’re mostly to blame for, or anything to do with nature and the environment, then there’s a place on our blog for you too.
Has something happened to the Dodo, Darren?
Just time, I’m afraid, Anita. Things are slow with Dodo at the moment. Hope you stay with us, we’ll get there!
Without doubt. But, yes time impacts a lot of our intentions. But yeah I am here. I have a lot of free time if you ever need help with it. just throwing that out there.
Appreciate the offer of help…am sure we’ll take you up on it once we figure out a regular pattern to what we’re posting. For starters, we’d welcome a non-fiction article about an environmental action. Kate is my partner on Dodo. She has her own blog at http://www.4amwriter.com if you wanted to pop over and say hello!
I had done that earlier when I went to take a look around. I can take a better look later too.
I have written an article but not sure how to send it for you to see. Obviously you don’t have to accept it. Just give me a few pointers if all else fails. Let me know the best way to send it.
Hi Anita,
That’s awesome. Please send to dodoexpress6@gmail.com as text in the body of the email.
I did a general sweep also, just realising that you specifically mentioned environmental..
