    <content type="html">Due to others talking it up, I've created a dreamwidth account (&lt;span style='white-space: nowrap;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.dreamwidth.com/users/deer-mews/profile'&gt;&lt;img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user_other.png' alt='[dreamwidth.com profile] ' style='vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' width='16' height='16'/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href='http://www.dreamwidth.com/users/deer-mews/'&gt;&lt;b&gt;deer-mews&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;).  For all you LJ folks (all 3 of you that read this), this will probably make little difference.  Content from here (&lt;span style='white-space: nowrap;'&gt;&lt;a href='http://deer-mews.livejournal.com/profile'&gt;&lt;img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif' alt='[livejournal.com profile] ' style='vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' width='17' height='17'/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href='http://deer-mews.livejournal.com/'&gt;&lt;b&gt;deer_mews&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;) will remain pretty much the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm going to use the dreamwidth blog to post the creative writing stuff, and finally migrate the stuff over from my blogspot account, which I rarely (if ever) use anymore.  I'll cross post any reviews and essays, which is why I say the change to LJ will probably be pretty minimal.  I'll also start building the online poetry archive.  Maybe, &lt;i&gt;just maybe&lt;/i&gt;, this will open up that particular part of the mental vault again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm migrating the creative presence over to dreamwidth because I think it will play nicer and allow more interaction between the two sites, which will be nice.  It'll make for ONE formatting and style system, too, which will help.  Finally, I like the ability to easily cross-post, if I want.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hmmm.  So, I've been shanghaied to yet another online presence which I will update only infrequently, for which I will feel unreasonably guilty...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sounds good to me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=deer_mews&amp;ditemid=478" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
