breakingupwithbrooklyn.com






She's far from complete - but I'd like to invite you all over to my new 'home' on the Internets:

http://www.breakingupwithbrooklyn.com

There will be changes made from time to time - but I figure it's time to herd the traffic toward the new site. I do hope you'll all be patient with me as I learn the ins and outs of wordpress and play with themes from time to time. I welcome your feedback - and any tips, tricks, and/or general knowledge you'd like to share with me as it pertains to maintaining a site using wordpress.

Please familiarize yourself with the various different 'categories' which include Kitty's Story, Brooklydoscope, and BK Events.

Kitty's Story
is the continuation of the story you have been reading up to date. Don't you worry one bit because I have every intention of continuing to post my thoughts, my fears, my confusion as it pertains to Daniel, and to just simply share my general insanity with you all.

Brooklydoscope is a little something different that I'm introducing to the site and I hope you all share this with any friends or acquaintances that you think would be interested. Through Breaking up With Brooklyn, Brooklydoscope will serve up interesting and distinctive photographs of Mother Brooklyn. The only common characteristic for all of Brooklydoscope’s featured photos is that the main theme directly relates to the mindset of traditional Brooklyn. What does this look like? I’m not sure there’s an answer to that question but I can guarantee you I’ll know it when I see it. Some of the photographs shared will be taken by yours truly (you'll recognize them by their crappy quality and general blah-ness) but I am hoping to solicit submissions from artists interested in having their work shared by means of the blog. Spread the word!


BK Events
is exactly what it sounds like. As I mentioned in my Brooklyn: Unite! post a few weeks back, I want to try to serve as a sort of aggregator for events that are of interest to the Brooklyn native who shares with me the desire to get out and enjoy this borough a bit more, sans hipsters. Summer of 2010 has started off on a serious note and I plan on continuing to enjoy it as much as possible. I will share the skinny on various events, cool locations, and general happenings as they pertain to the real Brooklynite.

So, folks - I hope you like the new set-up. From here on I will be posting any blog-entires, photos, etc on the new site so please re-bookmark or re-subscribe to me via RSS once you click the link.

Coming soon: subscribe via e-mail... Just as soon as I learn how to add that function, Jesus I'm a noob!


PS - I am working on a follow up to my hipsters are fake artists and this is why piece. I realize that my random spewing of thoughts came off as a pretty unsupported argument as to why I am so anti-hipster and as such I'm going to put together a little something that will be better structured, a bit more coherent and all around awesome. Keep a look out!
