Divine paper trail, (explosion) (explosion)
As this morning's walk rendered my hands pretty much unfit for making stuff (what with the leash burn), I have spent part of this afternoon spiffying up two new sections of Doinstuff: Knitting Stuff and Quilting Stuff.
I've thought a lot about how to organize the content of this site, and this is what I've landed on: Doinstuff, the main site, will be general life stuff - stories about going to the grocery store and my stupid opinions on a myriad of issues - as well as, here and there, a link to one of the new parts when I have actually finished a project.
Knitting Stuff and Quilting Stuff will be knitting and quilting blogs. I actually haven't read any quilting blogs - the knitting blog arena seems to be much more booming, from what I can tell - but I want to have one because I quilt a lot and don't want all the knitters to think I'm being a slacker when I'm actually off quilting.
Because I have very little idea who reads this site, I'm not sure if this format is going to work. With the knitting blogs I read, I'd read just about anything the knitter wanted to sit down and write, so I wouldn't like them to separate their life-stuff from their knitting stuff. But, since this started off as a life-blog, I would feel weird about throwing something about knitting in every once in a while.
So, basically, here and there I will throw in a link to my other blogs, and you can go look at whatever I've just stuck a fork in. Or you don't have to. It's up to you. OR, if you can't stand grocery store stories and are very conservative but think I'm some kind of knitting prodigy (god help you), you can just read my craft blogs.
And, if you have strong opinions or potentially helpful feedback about how you would like to be able to navigate my site, e-mail me (orooni at g mail dot you know).
