Well Guy and I have now completed the chapter for the sampler’s book and a good time it was writing it.
We have come a long way in the writing and were wondering today whether the experience of keeping the metablog has influernced trhe way we write on Drjoolz and Myvedana.
I have found it hard to keep up both blogs simultaneously as I think I still like to write about blogging itself on the DrJoolz space. In the summer I kept these things separately and I wrote in a very much more light hearted way all the time and so ‘over here’ was the serious spot. But even then I had to be discilpined enough to resist mixing everything up in the way I am inclined to - that ‘part serious/part frivolous’ boundary being blurred.
Actually one of the things we have rarely done in this space, is make it clear who is writing when - and I-anya told me she always wants to know. Today I have made it clear . I think we never intended to hide our authorship from one to the other; but hevertheless it is interesting that we even subconsciously chose to do so. A joint ethnography; a double handed auto ethnography, as Guy would say.P
Anyhoo, we will continue to write here, thinking about what paper Two will be about and when…
So not an end of an era thank heavens.
