So I’ve decided to merge, move, and delete. Don’t panic my faithful readers, Howling Hill is not going anywhere.

I’m deleting Pensieve, where I blog about my faith. All the posts which will be merged here will be categorized as “Pagan.” I’m also going to merge Tangled Webs here, which will have the category “Self.” Anything Howling Hill related will remain categorized as “Outside.”

There was another blog I wrote for a few years but I deleted it last fall because it was so full of rage, hate, and fear and that’s not the person I want to be anymore. And in the process of cutting and pasting the whole blog into Word Documents (over 1000 entries I think!), I realized categories are a PITA which is why I’ve never had them on this blog. But since I don’t think all my posts from Tangled Webs and Pensieve will really work under the category “Outside” I’ve decided I’ll have three: “Outside,” “Pagan,” and “Self” mostly to help me demarcate posts and where they (originally) came from.

This means, of course, the number of total posts for this blog will increase by about 100. My archives will be getting fatter. And that’s the goal of all bloggers, right?

Hopefully this merge will take place this weekend.

Edited to add: Already I was making myself nuts with the whole category thing so I’ve just deleted them all except “uncategorized.” My problem is I get to precise so I end up micromanaging myself. So f*ck it, I’m not having categories.
