Dear Blogger,
What good times we’ve had.
Writing stories. Downloading photos. Recklessly hotlinking movie poster images and music videos. Ah, life in the fast lane.
How could I not love you?
You introduced me to blogging. I am enthralled. Enraptured. Engaged in life again.
But we have a problem. You won’t let my friends get a word in edgewise.
Only certain people can comment. Only certain people can subscribe.
Oh, I know you say they’re just doing it wrong. But I wonder. Maybe you’re doing this on purpose so they have to join your clique.
Last night I heard you mutter it doesn’t matter if anyone reads my blog because I’m doing it for the love of writing.
Theoretically that’s true, but let’s get something straight. I’m not writing so only you and I can read it. We already know what it says.
If someone, anyone, wants to read it, comment on it, subscribe to it, share it on Facebook, email it to their Aunt Cleo, their cousin Irving, their daughter Macie at college, their son Jake who works in New York, their fourth grade teacher Ms. Vanpelt, their neighbor Winston Rutherford Waterman or any one else on earth, I say have at it.
As much fun as we’ve had together, I'm leaving you for another platform.
I’m moving to WordPress today. There readers can comment, subscribe, and get updates via email. They can even click like if they want.
You can't change my mind. Everything is in place.
I have my own domain at everydayepistle.com, along with new headshots from photographer friend Kristin Scully. And I'm taking my quirky title, my snippets of pop culture and my itty-bitty blog with me.
Come up and see me sometime.
Virtually yours,
Aimee
