New provider and new start
After a year of treating this blog as a second-class citizen and posting in fits and starts, I’ve finally decided to do something with it rather than focus my attentions elsewhere. I’d been planning on using this as just a “business face” for my copywriting work, but now I realise that it’s not the right way to go about working in this industry in this day and age, and that I was approaching it from the perspective of a much older business model. It’s not Matt Bruce The Copywriter, or The Blogger, or The Article Writer, but rather Matt Bruce The Writer (or The Author, depending upon which side of the Pond you live).
So I’ve moved this site to a new hosting provider — with unlimited everything (a lesson learned from another blog I write that experienced the breathtaking Slashdot Effect first-hand) — and will be posting items of interest to the writing community. Not everything will be original, I’m sure, but the plan is for the content posted here to be relevant, helpful, light-hearted or humourous (where appropriate), and interesting.
Rather than every 5 months.
That’s got to be a good thing, yes?
There are still a few cosmetic details to sort out in the site software and I’m contemplating integrating a Twitter feed and perhaps a Facebook connection, too, but I don’t know if that may be a little bit of overkill at the moment. What do you think?
