The Time For This Change Has Come

Dear Variable Interest readers – or those who happened to stumble upon this today…

I have started a new, eco-friendly, earth-loving blog at http://bustedresource.wordpress.com. Please update your readers and/or bookmark that new site.

It has been with absolute pleasure that I have started this new blog and AM CURRENTLY recruiting authors and contributors to help with upkeep. Contact me if you would like to join, or would at some point like to contribute; blogging alone, continually, while working and part-time schooling (and yes, having a life beyond the internet) is terribly difficult.

The decision to start a new blog – and phase out Variable Interest – was easy and strong. I asked myself ;
1) Do I want to quit writing? = No. Then, 2) ‘Would I put Variable Interest on a resume?’. The answer was probably not, as it had become – and always had been – very personal. Busted Resource is to remain personal, but hold a stronger focus on my work and interests; that being land and resource management, and ecological restoration. Also, 3) would I have have linked to V.I. at a professional level? Again, probably not.

The name was one I secured months ago when it popped into my head. It reflects the eco. restoration and environmentalist’s mindset, and the connotation is correct.

Lastly, I needed my currently strong internet (that being Google) presence to point in that direction. It’ll take more page views, comments and whatnot to materialize, but that is my goal.

It has been an excellent learning experience and I hope you follow and contribute to the continuation of my work and passion.

All hail the honourable BustedResource.
