This Blog Has Moved House
Things Invisible to See has a new home.
Moving is hard, but then you get to plop down into your favorite chair in a new, bright, clutter-free space. Earlier this year, I started the Bread and Stories project on the Ghost.org platform. Now Things Invisible to See has a home there, too.
Geeky Notes: to avoid a separate hosting fee—since you’re the customer instead of the product, Ghost hosting isn’t free—I grouped the posts into two collections under breadandstories.com. That involved learning a new markup language and digging into theme templates, but that sort of thing is my idea of a good time. The Ghost documentation is extensive, and the community is very helpful.
This blog began at my lonely desk at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, so it feels fitting to make it an anchoress on the wall of another domain.
As for the posts: you know how that last moving box is an absurdly random jumble of coffee filters, batteries, playing cards, an old notebook, and the toothbrush you use to clean grout? In your exhaustion, you may just want to drop the whole mess at the curb. Such was the fate of some old posts and drafts from this Substack. Migrating five years of articles also prompted me to edit many of them, trimming off long preambles and topical asides. For example, here’s the revised post about Pamela Colman Smith, illustrator of the iconic Smith-Waite tarot deck.
Apologies if the change of platform is confusing. If you’re subscribed, emails will continue to arrive once or twice a month. You can unsubscribe at any time or choose which of the two newsletters to stay subscribed to.
