Housekeeping: The Katrina Blog Project is Back!

I HAVE BEEN SPENDING the last few weeks trying to clean up this website.

A few years ago, I made the grave mistake of upgrading my Squarespace account to the latest version. I thought I would be getting more functionality, but the upgrade wrecked tha architecture of my website, including breaking all the links that held together the Katrina Blog Project, a central set of entries I wrote in September 2006 about my experiences with Hurricane Katrina.

I have the Blog project back up on its own page, and I am fixing some of the links that have been broken and upgraded the graphics a bit. I will keep working on it, but the page is readable now.

You can find the Katrina Blog Project by navigating to its home page, or you can click here.

In the aftermath of all this, I have come to the realization that Squarespace, whatever the hell it is for, is not good for blogging. I am exploring a transfer, after almost 20 years, to Wordpress or possibly Substack. Not sure yet, but sometimes things have to change.

If you mess with my writing, it won’t go well for you. Squarespace messed with my writing. It isn’t a sin I am likely to forgive.

But for now, and for the near future, everything remains here.
