Out with the Old and In with the New

Hello Everybody. Long time no see. I had what I can only call a blogging breakdown. I just didn't feel like blogging. Instead of boring you all with a rant about it, I  decided to take a break to figure out why I didn't feel like writing.

After several months I finally understood my reasons. Reason one was that I simply didn't have the time or the energy to keep up with both my song blog and book blog. Reason two was that I didn't only want to write about books and music. I wanted to write about books, music, and my other interests. Many times over these months I've had a great idea for something I'd like to share with the world, but I didn't because it didn't fit with the book or music blog concept. Once I figured out what I wanted out of my blogging I had to brainstorm to figure out what to do about it. Over my trip to New York this summer an idea smacked me in the head. I thought the best thing to do was merge both my blogs together into one blog. Not only that but I could add all the other things I've been wanting I to talk about such as: movies, TV, crafts, dance (I am a dance teacher after all), and whatever else I feeling like reviewing or sharing. As my mother said I'm basically making a blog that is more like a ...well...blog. Haha!

The idea is still in it's early stages so bare with me as I put everything together. I have to figure how exactly how to transition from my two current blogs. I don't want to lose all the book reviews on this blog. I will leave this one up for awhile and eventually make a page with all my previous reviews on the new blog. As for the the song blog I might keep that up for a few months. I'm thinking I might transfer my playlists but that is about it. I still have a lot of things to sort out, but right now I have the two most import things set in stone. What I want the layout to look like and of course a name for my new writing adventures. The new blog will be entitled Dancing, Dreams, and Shiny Things. I will post another post as soon as the new site goes public so you can find me again. I hope you all will still follow me on the new blog. I have always appreciated you support. Keep it shiny!
