Well, for anyone who's been to the Poemeleon blog lately one thing stands out: I don't really use it. With the addition of the Newsblog feature on the website, I have found I don't really need it, so I am discontinuing it in an effort to consolidate things.

It will probably linger around in cyberspace for a while, but in the meantime, if anyone has the urge to access archived posts, I have moved them to my personal blog at http://catiporter.wordpress.com. Just click on the "Poemeleon" category link.

Any critical news will be disseminated through the Newsblog from now on.
