Live Journal and Its Fifty Percent Staff Reduction

[cathschaffstump]

Just fair warning. The fifty percent staff reduction at Live Journal I take as a bad sign. Of course, I write the majority of my work over here at Word Press, and it's mirrored at Live Journal, but that said, there was a time before the writing journal that Live Journal was my mainstay for talking to the world.

With that in mind, then, I am going to move some of my old Live Journal writing over here in a kind of reprint effort. I have toyed with the idea of putting together a small collection of my journal essays into a non-fiction book (mostly for me, although I could make it available to others that might want it), but I can't do that if I wake up one morning and all my essays are gone. So I'd best get rolling on that. I'll try to offer some contextualization for you, the reader.

That said, most of what I have in my old journals is crap, and you don't want to see it, and I don't want to share it with you. So, this should be a manageable effort.

It'll be too bad in the end. I have fond memories, but yup, the only permanent thing is change. And other cliches that I hope to get away with.

By the way, as you can tell, headache is biting the dust. I loves me some pain free evening!

I'm currently no fan of LJ, but if this is the news you're referring to (which was the only thing I could find on it), this article was written in 2009, so the news isn't precisely fresh.

Is there another thing happening?

I sure didn't. Thank you for pointing that out.
