Just One Click Away From Our New Home

I started this blog almost two years ago because I'd written for other people's voices for so long that I wasn't sure what my own sounded like. It was the written version of discovering who are you when no one's looking?



Also, over twenty years ago someone had written that Christian women have pink fluffy icing for brains. This struck me as bigoted then, and I apparently still wanted to talk about it. This new blogging thing was the perfect chance to finally have the last word, or at least one that I didn't need an editor's permission to publish. I'd just try to write some reasonably intelligent, culturally relevant content. If I were successful, I would de facto refute the assertion by writing words instead of flinging them.

Thus was PFI born.

It's for others to decide whether or not any of the piffle I've produced over the past two years ranks as intelligent, or relevant to anyone but me. However, I say with satisfaction that I did accomplish my first goal. I found out what I sound like.

It turns out that my voice works best in harmony arrangements. Since Rick started cartooning inside the posts a few months ago, PFI readership has grown faster than any time in the previous two years. It's been such fun that we find our creative pursuits both merging and expanding into other areas in our life. Since PFI is a free blogger site and is limited in scope, it's time to move to one that has a bit more elbow room.

So, this is my last PFI posting. (A moment, please.... sniff, sniff.... Okay, I'm okay now.)

This is not to be confused with my last posting. Hell, no! I've just gotten warmed up!

This is as close as you're going to get to an engraved invitation but is in no way any less sincere: please join us at our new home! We'll have cake and balloons and a shiny new subscription button waiting for you.

Kidding about the cake! But www.rickandkathy.com is waiting for you with a bunch of new and different kinds of content, including a new post already there on the blog page, "Tales." The posting is, "Surprised by Mennonites," and you might find it useful. They can sneak up on you, you know.

Hey, sign the guest book on the way out! (Actually, there is no guest book, but leave a comment on the site so others can see who they will meet in the new place, and we'll call it square.) And subscribe at rickandkathy.com so you don't miss the sneaky Mennonites or Rick's recipe for zinfandel infused Beef Encore.

Okay, bye.
