Moving

[hobgoblinn]

I'm just posting this to say that I'm moving my online presence to Dreamwidth. As soon as I figure out how to move my content over there, I will, probably after Nanowrimo is over (and finals.) I have created an account as hobgoblinn over there, same as here, although there is as yet no post in it. Maybe I'll rectify that this weekend.

I think some of you crosspost here from Dreamwidth, so if anyone would like to share advice or experiences, please do.

My main reason for this is I'm getting tired of all the spam comments on my old posts, and the taking away of paid accounts and other actions by the PTB just seem like things I don't want to tolerate when I don't have to.

So, I will still check in from time to time here until my account reverts to a free one next Spring, I think. I will give plenty of advance notice if I decide to completely pull the plug on this account.

In hobgoblinn news, my job continues to be wonderful, and I have taken both the GRE general and subject (English Lit) tests. Other than math being as expected horrible, I think I did quite well on the others, enough that I probably don't have to retake any of them to get into a doc program if I want to fill my summers with that in a year or two.

And Wee Hob is being a Senior. At least his Senior moments involve lack of homework and nothing more serious. And my beloved is still wonderful.

I better get back to my write in. Can any of this count for word count, do you think? I am so far behind!

Love to all.

Crossposting from DW is so easy you don't even have to do anything besides set it up once. For me, if I want to post something, I always do it through DW and there's a box that is automatically checked that crossposts it to LJ.

I'll look for you on DW and add you!

Good luck on NaNo! What sort of thing are you writing about this year?

Just trying to write every day. Started out with recent history, but that got boring quickly. Life's been very Rivendellesque for me lately. I'm not going to win this year, but I'll write a few hundred words every day and that will be good practice. Are you writing? And congrats on surviving the GRE.

Any writing I'm doing currently all has to do with class and grad school applications. I'm still in the process of writing a personal statement (x8), but I keep getting cold feat about writing it. Not to mention my family has a vendetta against me being allowed a day of no distractions so I can get things done.

Otherwise, what I started writing was a sort of apocalyptic kind of thing with a biblical slant.

Side-note, this layout is very Star Trekkish. I like it!

Yeah, I just changed it again. I can read this one better. Did like the trekish ones, though (there are several with different accent colors.) Have you opted to do a paid account here yet, or is that in the after grad school when you have more money future?

I occasionally pay for the account every now and again when I have extra cash. The only difference I notice is the addition of icons. I usually only change around my header and accents colors.
