A verdict! And wish me luck...

I owe many comment replies and blog visits and even some personal emails (Father V!), but I must beg for a reprieve as we are jetsetting out of town (well, American Eagle commuter jetsetting) to go skiing. Would-be crimemongers, don't bother, as the homestead will be well-stocked with family members throughout our absence.

I am a terrible skier, which should make for some exciting blog entries next week... hopefully not typed on a laptop from the traction bed at the hospital in Tahoe.

In other news, thank you so much for sharing your opinions, especially since you all told me what I wanted to hear in the first place. Is there any sweeter sound? I have decided that I will, in the very near future, combine the two blogs into one monstrous chronicle of my so-called creative life. Which is good because I have to brag about the AWESOME muff I made for my hands. Last March in New York, all I wanted was a pair of boots that would keep out the snow and a muff so I didn't have to keep taking off gloves and putting them back on. I'm so set on both counts, so I'd say this trip is off to a grand start!

Happy weekend, all!

Queshtun.

(That's an old "Beavis and Butthead" reference, if you're curious. I would post a Youtube clip but none seems to be available for the song in queshtun.)

So, here's what I'm wondering, and I'm going to ask this at both of my blogs (what?? you didn't know I have a sewing blog?)...

Because yesterday's post about Unclutterer, coupled with some actual uncluttering going on in my house, and in my sister's house (goodbye, sweet comics, goodbye), got me thinking about uncluttering my blogs.

The thing is, I don't want to bore my crafty readers with stuff about books and agents. But I also don't want to deprive the darlings of the knork, etc. And I don't want to bore my author blog readers with my crafting. But then there's all the crossover stuff, especially because at some point my sewing room is actually supposed to be my office for writing, too. (That point would be, uh, last July.) And the creative process -- whether it's creating writing or quilts -- is all kind of related, isn't it?

So I'm thinking about having one blog in which I talk about both types of things. The crafty stuff doesn't get really heavy... it's mostly just pictures of finished pieces. And everybody likes pictures, right?

I would just like to centralize a little. I'm afraid I keep missing comments and not replying because occasionally my head spins between the two blogs. And I'm sure that having two blogs (not laziness) is what kept me from being able to finish my awesome 12 Days of Christmas. Yeah, that's the ticket--totally the two blog thing. Not laziness. No way.

So if you read this or both blogs, would you hate that? Yea for centralization? Nay for centralization?
