Over 1,500 posts have been trashed. But not before being backed up onto Pressbook for future editing and possible later publication in print or e-book format. I figure that out of 1,560 posts, there should be a book or two that can be wrung from the contents.
I started this blog in June of 2006 – nearly eight years ago. In that time, I have written about love and death and birth and joy and poop and hair and television. Politics, veganism, cattle, Wal-Mart, and consignment stores.
I have raged and ranted, cried and laughed and waxed rhapsodic. Readers have come and gone and there are a few faithful who still tune in occasionally to see if I’m alive, or still writing.
I am. Still writing, that is. To be more specific, I am re-writing. I am taking what I put out into the ether and making from it a silk purse. I thank you for reading, for sharing your lives with me, for sharing in the evolving story that has been my life.
Email me at marymurtzblogger@gmail.com for more info on where to find and read me in the future.
And from the bottom of my heart: THANK YOU.
