Spring Is Near! And, Fresh News For Your Monday

The above photo is to remind you (and myself) of all the latent beauty waiting to spring up and flourish again this year. I took the photo at a lookout in La Crescent, MN last summer. The same lookout at the top of the bluffs, where Jeff and I were able to see Neowise the comet... remember that? I saw so many shooting stars then too! The end of winter is in sight, even though March can be so topsy-turvey. I can't wait to see the prairie flowers again, and all that goes with them! But, for now, baby steps to those days. 

A lot is moving, changing, and growing with this site and my new site at the moment. I want to give you a heads up on everything, so here you go: 

I have deleted my old Wordpress (WP) blogs (cssherin and recipeforagreenlife) and my Medium account. But, all is not lost! I have migrated much of what was there to this blog! So be sure to browse the archives on this blog to see all the articles that have migrated here, safe and sound. 

The reasons for doing this are many, but here are a couple: while I love WP and have blogged and worked on WP sites since 2008, the time has come to move on in a way that is more streamlined with my new business. As for Medium, I used it as a portfolio while I was freelancing, and found it to be nice for that. However, their payments, policies, and methods are not really at all supportive of writers; and as they have continued to make it harder and harder, I felt happy to leave. Plus, having my writing in one place feels great! 

So, yep, most of my articles and essays are here now. I'm really happy with how things are working out. 

And, I have created my new website, cssherin.com. 

One more update that I'm delighted to announce: the eBook version of Recipe For A Green Life survived the dissolution of Wild Clover in 2020! This means that soon it will be available in my shop at cssherin.com! I am truly so happy that the eBook can continue. Charish and I poured countless hours of our hearts and pure passion into that project, and I am proud of what we accomplished! So, it is a joy to share that with you. I will let you know when it becomes available. 

Well, that's it for now. I hope you have a great week. 

Until next time, take good care of you!

all my best, 

Chandra
