I HAVE A NEW BLOG AT A NEW SITE

DUE TO THE ONGOING PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH GOOGLE ANALYTICS WHICH HAVE PREVENTED ME FROM EDITING OR POSTING TO MY OWN BLOGS ON BLOGGER USING MY HOME COMPUTERS, I HAVE SET UP A NEW BLOG AT

http://sanddreamingofstars.wordpress.com/

IN ADDITION TO POSTING NEW MATERIAL, I'M SELECTING MY FAVORITE BITS FROM THE OTHER TWO BLOGS AND GRADUALLY MOVING THEM OVER, RATHER THAN JUST PORTING EVERYTHING OVER.

I'VE ALSO BEEN EDITING THE MATERIAL THAT I'VE REPOSTED TO MAKE IT SHORTER AND TIGHTER, EXCEPT FOR STORIES.

THE EMPHASIS OF THE NEW SAND DREAMING OF STARS BLOG IS ON BOOK REVIEWS, POEMS, VIGNETTES, AND STORIES. NO POLITICS, NO TWITTER-ESQUE OR FACEBOOK-STYLE PERSONAL UPDATES, NO STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS. I'D LIKE TO POST ONLY MATERIAL THAT I'VE GIVEN SOME THOUGHT TO AND EDITED AT LEAST ONCE.

I'M ALSO GOING TO BE EMBEDDING LINKS AT THE BOTTOM OF POSTS, RATHER THAN THROUGHOUT, TO TRY AND AVOID THE DISTRACTION THAT STUMBLING OVER A LINK IN THE MIDDLE OF A SENTENCE AND DECIDING WHETHER TO CLICK IT OR NOT CAN CAUSE.

The other Blog

Just wanted to say that I've added some more poems as well as some personal essays to my other blog, Sand Dreaming of Stars. I'm relatively pleased with them.

So anyone who reads this site should also check that one out. One Hand Clapping will still have the political asides, reviews, and comments on my writing efforts.
