Because of multiple projects I've been juggling lately, time is in short supply.
For the past couple of years I've been blogging on multiple platforms, resulting in plenty of redundancy in between.
For now, I feel the need to consolidate blogging to the tumblr, where I've been able to update almost every day.
You'll notice this blogspot blog has been the most neglected, the reason being is that the blogspot platform is a little labor intensive. The time I spend making one blogspot post, I can pretty much do 10 tumblr posts.
So until further notice, all further posts will take place at http://modernlove20.tumblr.com. See you there!
Moving to the Tumblr Page!
