It's been a long, long time...

Looking back, I haven't posted to this blog in close to a year. In the intervening time, I completed a certificate course in editing, and went from being a contractor to a full-time employee, for the first time since I was laid off in September 2003. The course was very helpful, I thought, but took up a lot of my energy and mind-space. I thought about starting a new blog, a different one, but most of the things I was thinking about seemed to fit in here just fine.
