My New Blog

Sometimes you just have to do it yourself. I didn’t start out to be a webmaster, but that’s how it turned out. In early 2008, when I wanted to erect a website on the domain I’d registered a few years earlier, I couldn’t get in touch with the computer guru who designed and managed my first website in 1993. So I downloaded some basic web design software, decided what I wanted the website to look like  and figured out how to make that happen. A couple of weeks later — presto! — I was back on the web with the original BQB website. Flash forward almost two years and it’s déjà vu all over again.  About three weeks ago I started work on converting my website to a WordPress blog and — presto! — here it is. Here it mostly is. A bunch of the links on TRAVEL aren’t yet live. And I may be adding more links to Mail Tribune stories on NEWS.  Both NOVELS and ABOUT are in for more tweaking. And I have some pages from the original website — notably those under Notes on Fiction and Notes on Mystery — which haven’t found a landing spot on the new website. But the most important feature of the new website — an easily-updated blog — is actually running, and this is my first official post. My theme for the blog remains the same — Nothing In Particular. Whatever I wanna say. Whenever I wanna say it. — with the clear intention of having something to say a little bit more often. How will that turn out? We shall see.
