Blogging the bleurgh out

 

This blog has been many things to me over the years, and probably been different things to each of you too. It has survived (just) a change of host, a change of url, a variety of creative pursuits, five jobs and two study periods; not to mention all the highs and lows of that any life contains. Kel's Space has gone from a time before Facebook (before Facebook, people) when blogs were far less common and people at work would have no idea what you were talking about if you mentioned your blog; to a time when, chances are, the company you work for has a blog.

So it's no surprise that I've lost my voice more than once over the years. A blog needs a voice, a purpose, a direction to survive; the roots that support the trunk and all the branches. I want to find this again, and with the help of Susannah Conway, I hope to. She's running a class, Blogging from the Heart, over the next 6 weeks (and again in the autumn if you're interested!) that sets out to help us with just that.

Thank you for sticking with me, and I hope to reward your loyalty in the weeks and months to come.
