Like the great wild wildebeest of the Serengeti, the blog is moving to new territory.
While it's still under construction and the User Experience is still as clunky as riding in the back of a wagon train, it's up and running. The content is all there. And it's sleek and minimal and beautiful as hell.
Some of you may be thinking, "dude, Hattie, this will confuse everyone!" maybe you're right. Plus, some of you made the journey from the old site only last year. But I've also been grappling with the discomfort I feel in combining my personal "author" website with my advice blog. It's felt a little too intertwined. The purpose of each website is pulling farther apart. I'm hoping to seek clarity in the goal and mission of each site by separating them, like when you don't want two different foods to touch on your plate to ensure neither compromises the flavor of the other (did I lose you?)

Either way, spend some time exploring the new site and shoot me a message if you notice any UX areas that are horrific or miserable to deal with. And, as always, thank you for being along with me on this journey. You have no idea how fortunate I feel for my readers.
