The new blog is here!

Well 2020 has been a year! As you all know. My intended  revision, redesign and migration to a new blog took twice as long as anticipated, but... finally...  

The exciting news: announcing WORDLY EXPLORATIONS!

Here's the new blog design.

The good news

Wordly Explorations is everything you enjoyed about AdjAngst with an expanded set of topics. The new design makes it easier to read, and the font is larger (thanks for that feedback). It is a responsive site, so it should be better on devices too. Other feedback to enhance readability has also been integrated, so I do hope you enjoy. 

Probably the biggest change is that I am now (mainly) writing under my own name. That feels like a big step!

The bad news

I can't migrate the email subscribers from AdjAngst over to Wordly Explorations, so you will need to resubscribe to continue to receive weekly posts. I'll keep AdjAngst going for a while yet, with cross links to the new blog, so you have some time to resubscribe. 

You'll find the Follow by Email option on the left of every Wordly Explorations page (at the red arrow in this image).

I was able to migrate the AdjAngst Facebook community page over to Wordly Explorations, so if you follow the blog on Facebook, you don't have to do anything. 

And finally, MORE good news: the Wordly Explorations manifesto

I am really excited about starting a new phase of writing and exploring words. I look forward to your comments, feedback and company as we explore the everyday words we humans use, misuse and sometimes abuse.

From Mary Pipher

 Wordly Inspiration from Mary Pipher, the author of Writing to Change the World:

"A writer's job is to tell stories that connect readers to all the people on earth, to show these people as the complicated human beings they really are, with histories, families, emotions, and legitimate needs. We can replace one-dimensional stereotypes with multidimensional individuals with whom our readers can identify."

There Are Two Kinds Of People: those who blame others and those who blame themselves.  

Is there a third: those who don't use blame as a way of understanding other people and the world?
