I’ve been on an unintended break from blogging for almost two months now. The needs of my faculty position, my other writing, and my family life took precedence, but now I’m trying to ease back into my blog.

I’ll start with a link to my Portage County Gazette column from last week that was really fun to write because I got to sit down for a while with some wonderful folks.

The paper’s site is now fully functional, so I suspect we’ll renegotiate what I do with my columns.  Access to the site is free until March.

I’ve got another post that’s not recreation-related almost ready to go.  It was written with a mix of disappointment, dismay, and criticism, and it’s the latter that is making me wait another day or so.
