Thanks for the Ride, Readers

booksGlenn “Instapundit” Reynold’s linked to yesterday’s post about synesthesia, which brought the kind of traffic this blog hasn’t seen in many months. Thanks for the ride, readers.

My excuse reason for not updating the blog as often as I used to invariably shifts from blogging for clients to looking for more clients to pitching article ideas to print publications and off-blog sites. Round and round and round she goes. Where she stops? Who’s to say?

I found yet another reason to not update the blog as much as I used to. I’m trying to raise my writing career to new levels. Yes, that means books. I’m going through an exciting time of boldness, exploration, and discovery, and this is a feeling I’d wish on my worst enemies. Should’ve done this long time ago.

I’ve got something floating around, and I hope to be more specific about what the thing is in the near future. I can’t wait until it comes to fruition so I can blog about it.

I know you miss my political prose, and in many ways, I’m sorry about that. (FYI, new visitors, I used to be a fairly popular political blogger.) But there’s good news! Political blogging shall return, although briefly. A second project I’m brainstorming as we speak will deal with an aspect of the conservative blogosphere. Can’t be more specific. It’s a wonderful project, and I can’t wait to start pitching it. Developing the pitch will require most of my “spare” time, which means infrequent blog updates. You see, if I can’t write what I consider meaningful posts (more than a paragraph or two, and with some substance), I don’t see the point of updating. And I won’t update just for the sake of it. Not my style.

Just wanted to say THANKS. I really do appreciate you. Your readership is still a surprise to me, even after four years, and a blessing.

Are you trying to raise your game/career to a new level? Do share!

As always, check back for updates! :)

Update (5/30): Thanks for the kind words via comments and e-mail. Very uplifting. I’m en route “home” to Carolina for a little R&R. Rest easy, everybody.

PS: Next week I’ll blog about the recent California Supreme Court decision (PDF), so read up!
