I’m Moving Out… I’m Starting Anew

To everyone who cared,

First off, I would like to say a big and hearty THANK YOU to the chosen few who have fought their way to the caverns of the cyber world and found this humble blog of mine. I am really glad that I got to share with you a part of me which most people I know could not have appreciated as much as you do. And so, I really cherished your taking time to read and understand this ‘seeming nonsense.’ You have no idea how much difference you’ve brought to the past few months of my life.

But, alas, for the longest time I wasn’t able to put a thing in here. And here I’ll go justifying my negligence again because of stress, work, blah… blah… blah… which is kind of tiring and unacceptable. Truth be told, in a sense, I feel that I have failed big time in being the Divine Archivist for my dear few readers and of course myself. And I would like to apologize for that.

Musing about these thoughts, I realized a few things about managing an info (?) site like this: a) you should at least have a plan or a rough time frame for the stuffs you’re going to write (which, unfortunately, I don’t have); and b) you have to stay focused if you really want something accomplished (which, unfortunately, I often lose). The decision to move out and start anew dawned upon me when a relative unconsciously coined an interesting spelling for my name. And so, from now on, I’ll go under the title Lord (because I’m a trying hard elitist) and Professor (because I’m a college instructor now) Viege. Better, brighter, and most importantly, more motivated… by the desire to share EVERYTHING I know about mythology.

After all that’s been said and done, promises made and having them broken, I am now going to ask you for a second chance. Coming with my new moniker is my brand new blog named LORD AND PROFESSOR VIEGE’S GREEK MYTH-O-MANIA (link), your unofficial and fully unauthorized guide to the famous and infamous immortals of Classical Mythology. The purpose of this blog is basically the same as The Olympian Archives. The difference, however, is that I’ll be trying very hard to follow a tight schedule week per week with a steady flow of articles (I’m more confident know, I already have the articles for the next few months). Also, I know that there’re people out there who are very much of a Greek geek like me so I’ll be more open to comments, suggestions and most of all, article contributions! For everyone interested, you may reach me through:

The Olympian Archives may not be open for business from now, but I’m still hoping to share with you the magic of myth through Greek Myth-o-Mania. So long… see you!

Sincerely,

Lord and Professor Viege

Divine Archivist, Myth-o-maniac
