It is with a heavy heart that I am announcing the retirement of this blog, at least for the time being (although I make no promises that it will ever be active again - I just believe in a never say never philosophy wherever appropriate). I have been writing music reviews for well over a decade now and have usually very much always enjoyed doing so. Writing and music are both primary passions of mine, so it was a marriage of two things that I love. However, for at least a solid year or two now, it has not brought me the same stimulation and excitement that it used to, typically a tell-tale sign that a passion project is nearing the end of its lifespan. It has sort of gotten to the point at which writing music reviews has felt like a chore, something that a hobby should never, ever feel like. The time that I put into writing these reviews is rarely, if ever, met with matching engagement. Even sharing them to Tumblr garners nothing.
I would prefer at this time to focus my creative energy on podcasting and writing poetry. You know what they say about all good things having to eventually come to an end, but who knows? Perhaps my heart will return to this project someday. Never say never, right? I mean, I am not making any promises, but I will not be deleting this blog. All of these reviews will remain here; the blog just won't be updated with any new reviews from here on out. Please feel free to follow my other creative endeavors, however! I co-host a Fringe rewatch podcast with my friend Darrell and also host a Disney podcast called dis•niche (both podcasts can also be found on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc.) You can also find my (currently) two poetry books The Lost Passenger and Peace Amongst Panic on Amazon! To any readers that I might have had here, thank you so much!
