Howdy, ducks! Welcome to the relaunch of The Second Awakening! I hope you enjoy the place.
I’ve wanted the blog to look something like this for a while, and it became clear to me that I wouldn’t be able to do that with Blogger. Also, I wanted to move to WordPress. And finally, I wanted my own domain name! And now here we all are.
The main image, by the way, is from Eugène Delacroix’s Liberty Leading the People, one of my favorite paintings and, I think, somewhat appropriate for the subject of the blog.
So settle in! I am told that there are goodies like threaded comments and the like. And who knows what else? I’m figuring this out as I go along too!
It’s a pity your comments didn’t follow you over, but Blogger’s lack of threaded comments has long been thorn in my side on my own blogs.
I always liked the dandy in the Delacroix painting to the left of Lady Liberty, the one in the jaunty top hat and muttonchop sideburns. I don’t know why. He’s just appealed to me always.
Like the new place! Looking forward to your future writingses.
