Impermanence

[aearwen2]

The saying goes "The only thing that never changes is that everything changes." And so it goes in the online world as well.

Last night, I withdrew my membership at the Garden of Ithilien Writers' Workshop over my disagreement with the way the admin there handled an issue. I won't go into the blow-by-blows, but the upshot of it is that I walked away from a group with whom I have felt more online kinship than I've enjoyed in a long time.

Standing up for principles hurts, folks. It's necessary, but it hurts like hell.

I hope that after some time people will be able to forgive and once again we'll be able to continue as we once were - a close knit group of friends and family. Until then - you know where to find me on email or here.
