I’m Moving — to Blogger!
First of all, let me apologize for the serious drought in posts as of late. My sickpocalypse sucked away all my blogging energy (and, actually, most of my other energy as well).
But now, as I’m pretty much over the plague and as I prepare for my next two speaking engagements, which are both on platform & online presence building (one this week at Scribblers’ Retreat Writers’ Conference in beautiful St. Simons Island, Ga., and one at James River Writers’ May “Writing Show” in Richmond, Va.)—I feel I need to make the switch from WordPress to Blogger.
Nothing against WordPress. It’s not you; it’s me. Really. I’ve been happy here for nearly two years, and we’ve had a good run.
It’s just that a few of the social networking things I need to do with the blog, I’m not able to do on WordPress. Not without hours of headaches (some of which I’ve already endured) and potential costs, which I’d rather avoid if I can . . .
. . . and I can, on Blogger.
There, I will be able to connect my bajillion blogs I follow as well as my Google Friend Connect widget right on the home page of the blog. This will make following and interacting between bloggity folks much easier.
Anyway, I hope all my loyal followers will make the trek over to my new digs and swap out following me/subscribing here for following me/subscribing there. It may take me a little bit to get settled in—and I’ll likely take my favorite posts from here with me—but I hope to see some familiar faces.
Here’s the new address: www.rickischultz.blogspot.com
And WordPress? I hope we can still be friends.

YAY!!! I just visited! And as soon as silly blogger’s up and running again, I’ll follow and leave a bazillion comments.
Yeah, that’s not exactly inspiring a lot of confidence!
(About Blogger, I mean — not about you visiting & commenting!!)
Yay! This will make it so much easier to keep up with your posts.
We do apologize for the technical difficulties…it isn’t usually like this.
Heh — yeah, that was a little scary. But all seems to be well now!
I find it funny that you’re departing for Blogger just as it’s completely melting down. You sure you want to leave Wordpres??
Haha — I know, right?? I’m not going to delete this blog, though. Just in case! And all seems to be well now.
