New widget thingy and blog news

Widget Thingy

I’ve added a skribit widget to the right sidebar (below Previous Posts), where you can click on “What do you want Jeff to write about?” Once enough suggestions are made, readers can vote on them so that we can see what the majority of readers are interested in. Not that I don’t have enough sources for ideas. But still. It looks fun.

Blog News

You may have noticed that I have been posting on an infrequent and unpredictable basis. I used to publish a weekly horoscope every Monday, plus two more posts, and I featured (as I still do) guest bloggers every so often.

If the astrological community has a dirty little secret, it’s that many professional astrologers don’t actually earn enough income from “the work” to do things like support families, pay rent, what have you. I lost my job back in February and have basically been doing what I can to make ends meet, and that has sometimes meant not having enough time/energy to post here as often as I used to. I do make sure that the quality of my posts stays constant. Plus, I started another blog because, basically, I want to earn most of my living as a writer on my own terms. And the forum has provided its fair share of drama. (Please don’t comment about that here, though!) So, I’ve been stretched thin is all. But please bear with me. This blog is my main squeeze (creatively, that is), and once I figure out what I’m doing financially, I should be able to commit on a deeper level.
