I wanted to thank everyone for their kind words and support yesterday and this morning, as I made the move from USC over here to SensibleTalk.com. I've tried to reply to everyone, but with so many messages coming in from so many different sources (three e-mail address, plus Facebook), I wanted to send this blanket "thank you" in case I missed a reply.

Please keep sending in story suggestions, tips and questions that you'd like to see addressed here on the new site. I can be reached by the Contact link at the bottom of the page.

One of the features I am planning for SensibleTalk.com is "theme weeks," where guest writers post journal entries on a select topic, with a different writer each day, Monday-Friday. I am already at work putting together the first, but if you have an idea for a theme week you'd like to see on the site, please use the Contact link to let me know. Suggestions for guest writers welcomed, as well.

I also wanted to that Scott Ruecker for jumping in and submitting a journal entry last night. All SensibleTalk readers are welcomed to sumbit journal enrtries; just click the Write Journal link to the left. (You will need to register with the site, if you have not already. It's free, takes just a moment, and I don't share members' e-mail addresses with anyone.) The journals are also a great place to ask a question, if you need help with something and looking for answers from other readers.

Thanks, again, and... I'm gonna dive back into my in-box now....

You rock Robert. I'm glad you aren't leaving the scene, just moving to a new home.

All I can say in response is "Thank You" right back at ya'! LOL Seriously though, I think that this site you have set up will facilitate more involvement and "cross pollination" for lack of a better term.

For me at least, your site has already gotten me to participate more than I ever have. I hope to meet other Writers and Editors, talk shop, discuss relevant topics..you know, cross pollinate. :-)

Scott
