What Katie did next

The thought of moving the site I currently use as an online portfolio for PRs or print editors to look at if they need find out more about me over to WordPress is too hideous to contemplate right now. So, instead I’m squatting on the Miramus blog to see if I can make myself a home here. If it gets inappropriate, I’ll make like the Littlest Hobo and move on.

I’m quite rubbish at writing a personal blog. I love my crochet blog (due to be updated with the shocking news that recently I have dabbled in KNITTING) but an actual personal blog about what I’ve been doing and what I’ve been thinking has always proved problematic. I’m just not very good at sharing personal information about my latest brain blahs.

Good news for you, at least. I’m not planning on turning this into a blog that liberally sprinkles around words like “musings”, “ramblings”, “random” or similar (though I read and admire many that do). Instead, I’ll pop up the odd column that I can’t post on the Telegraph any more and try to keep it fairly free from angst.

But, who knows? Maybe I’ll get a taste for over-sharing and you’ll all come back in a month to discover that I’m posting up song lyrics, making liberal use of ellipses and tagging people with memes.

Blogging for the Telegraph

I started writing for the Telegraph blog today, and you can read my words of undoubted wisdom here

Here’s a little taster:

I’ve known for a while, of course, but I’ve just been suppressing the truth. Now it’s time to come clean and admit it: the internet is stealing my life. It’s not just that I’m an addict (Hi, my name is Katie and I’m a weboholic) it’s also that the more time I spend reading about all the wonderful things the internet can do, the more time I spend on the internet trying to get those wonderful things to work.

I’ll be writing for them regularly, so if you’ve got any ideas for things you’d like to see me turn my keyboard to, do let me know. – Katie at miramus dot com (or just leave a comment)
