New beginnings

I’m starting fresh with a new blog, leaving behind the negativity of my old posts to focus on something more intentional. This is the beginning of a space where I want to write more, and actually enjoy doing it.

Okay, okay—I'm not packing my bags and moving across the globe (yet!). But I am starting over in a way that feels just as big for me. I'm starting fresh with this blog of mine. Don't worry! The old blog will stay up. At least until the end of this year.

So, why the change? Just look at it... It's in the name! "Orion's Void", a pit of sorrow and hurt. Writing many of these articles helped me, but I feel like a lot of them are just projections of negative energy. I don't want that. Certainly, I wouldn't wanna read many of the articles I published so far. Plenty of the text should have just stayed in my journal.

This blog will still be about me and my interests. I just want to do better this time. Post more frequently, with higher quality, actually take the time and put in more effort.

Occasionally, I may cross-post to Bear also, but it probably will be without all the bells and whistles. Looking back at my older posts, I noticed most of the images are gone. That is because I wasn't hosting them directly on Bear, but rather on my old WordPress server, which I now deleted. I have yet to figure out all the details. The current theme isn't final. I just picked and customized what was free and most to my taste. Eventually, I would like to create my own Ghost theme, but let's not get ahead of ourselves yet. For now, I just need to write, write, and write. Ghost's editor is the best for that right now. Even though I don't agree with a lot of the Ghost's design decisions and opinions about features. It is still a really great way to publish your content.

I’ve spent too much time perfecting, planning, and second-guessing. It’s time to do. I’ll figure out the rest on the way—but for now, I just want to write. And maybe even enjoy it.
