Thinking Critically

I can feel the catharsis of a thousand sleepless nights bearing down upon me. Graduation is nigh. The only thing left is the defense of my honors thesis - I'm virtually done.

Surprisingly, I don't feel much beyond that. I'm almost emotionally dead. Rather, I feel the need to move onto the next thing, which has been difficult so far. The job market is a cruel mistress. Understandably so, and I'll be damned if I'm going to let that deter me, but cruel all the same.

I've also had to deal with a few emergency medical situations lately. That's been draining enough on its own.

This leads me to my next announcement. With these life changes on the horizon, with this chapter of my life closing in an odd quiet explosion, I'm making a few changes to the blog. Most notably, I'll be posting way less. I need to cut down on writing and activities that are not directly contributing to my portfolio, actual work, or growth as a writer. I'll also be refocusing the blog on critical writing. In other words, expect less posts, but when I finally do get something up it will be a well-written critical essay.

So, this may be the last post for a while. The next one will be one of these essays, and will likely be posted sometime after the new year. Updates may continue to the site as needed but there won't be a post to accompany it unless necessary. And, of course, there may well be the occasional blog post.

Until then, go forth and do good!
