I can’t tell what’s worse—people who blog about not blogging, or the people who say, “Now, I know I said I’d never blog about not blogging, but...”
So yes, it’s been dead here for the past week, and slightly sporadic prior to that. Most of my attention has been at Drawn! the past few days, getting into the groove of having it run smoothly. It’s turned out to be somewhat of a hit, picked up by Boing Boing and MetaFilter within hours of me posting about it, and then like a virus, kept on spreading, shot up the del.icio.us charts, until I had nearly a million hits on Wednesday. It’s levelling out to a normal stream of traffic now, but still a heckuva lot more popular than this site!
Also, since Drawn! is powered by WordPress, which I have come to adore, it’s tough to come back to sluggish Movable Type (although, I think it’s a more stable, robust piece of software, I just looove the dynamic page building provided by WordPress).

Congratulations for your success on Drawn! =)
And thanks a lot for linking my Moleskine blog (what’s the word, illustration-blog? illo-blog? illog?) in the blogroll of Drawn!, it’s such an honnor to be among people whose work I love and respect…
