So, I figured out last night that I can’t delegate posts to appear on certain pages, as I thought I could. The most recent post is part of the Plague Doctor project …though it appears here on the main blog. There’s probably some setting I’m missing that would actually allow me to move it, but what I did was to post the link to the new post on the Plague Doctor page, which seems to suffice. I actually rather like that method, as it allows me to post all my content here, and then also link to it on the separate pages. Since these are works-in-progress, I like sharing the evolution of them here, in any event.
My roommate, friend, and volunteer photographer, Sandi stated yesterday that, due to the pandemic, anyone who is working digitally (and particularly if we are artists) is having to get a crash course in digital photography and videography, almost immediately. She noted that people actually go to school and get degrees for these things, and yet we are all scrambling to learn them ourselves in very short order. It’s really true … I can’t believe the amount of time I am spending learning how to configure pages, how to set up lightiing, how to photograph myself, and edit the photos, and….. it’s honestly no wonder that I woke up with a migraine this morning!
This blog will eventually become much more artistic, more polished, and better configured. At the moment, I’m still amazed that the words “my blog” are even coming out of my mouth…. I never saw myself as someone who would tread into these waters. I have many, many steep learning curves ahead, and I feel like Sisyphus rolling a digital boulder up and down said curve. Look for a Beauty Blog post in the day or so… I have photos that I should really edit before posting, and content to write. Welcome to the new reality.
