Trust30 day 1 – Character

So, Seth Godin’s Domino Project has created this 30 day challenge. Each day they send you a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson’s “Self-Reliance”, and you’re supposed to reflect on it and write a post. And since I apparently need some kind of external motivator to get my fingers over a key board and making the clickity-clack sounds, I signed up.
Here’s today’s quote:

Your genuine action will explain itself, and will explain your other genuine actions. Your conformity explains nothing. The force of character is cumulative.”

Turn and face the strange…

Started the next steps here at MPF this evening. Basically, I’ve ditched Blogger in order to pay for my own hosting and run WordPress. In the long run, this will be a good move in a lot of ways.
One way in particular – I think I can get away from libsyn.
Don’t get me wrong, I haven’t had any problems with Libsyn, and they’re a fine company. However, with this site, I get unlimited hosting and bandwidth, and the monthly cost will work out to less than what I was paying before. Also, WordPress. And other things which are coming.
So, eventually the blogger blog (available right now at madpoetfiles.blogspot.com) will be imported here, and then we’ll move on to the next phase.
