new journal?
Oct. 26th, 2009 12:00 amAttention:
Because of the amount of traffic coming into my journal from real life, I'm thinking of moving all my stories to a separate journal.
I gave a nice pretty speech about sticking to my guns and having a 'take the entirety of who I am or go away' attitude that's slinking away as more and more of my friends from RL visit my journal. (they are under the impression it is more of a blog, which has slightly different connotations than a journal...)
This also makes it easier for people who want to stay updated on my stories without necessarily getting my personal posts in their feed. So 'friending' carries less of a personal weight. It's more like...Story Alert on FF.net. (actually, I think LJ has that in Track This....)
MOG and NF-kun have already done this, so I'm thinking about it too.
What do you think?
