There will be some changes here at the circle W, my friends. They aren't changes most of you will notice, being friends of both blackwingedboy and blackwingedboy, who are of course me. They aren't changes anyone but me will care about. However, they may affect the availability of this journal for a short period.

Back in June of 2006, I split myself again in two, as I've done (and regretted) many, many times in my diary/blog/journal experience. One of those places, this one, ended up with all the writing and the other place, that one over there, ended up being largely abandoned. In the meantime, I kept commenting not as the me here, but as the me over there. That's resulted in a journal that I write in and a different username I comment with, but whose journal hasn't seen activity for over six months.

I've become fragmented. And with the notion that I'm going to be moving more experimental, comment-disabled, somewhat fictional ideas over to blogger, with its ease of multiple blogs and ability to stop and go on a whim, the current blackwingedboy now doesn't belong. I'd like to unify again. So I'm doing away with this journal, blackwingedboy, which will soon be magically renamed by the Live Journal gods as blackwingedboy. All entries, comments, images, userpics and styles will remain intact since June 2006 when I started it.

What is now blackwingedboy will be archived, and potentially then renamed to reflect that. All entries previous to June of 2006 will reside there, and I'll provide a handy link to that from the new blackwingedboy.

Still with me? If you are friends of both journals, you'll keep getting my entries on your friends page and nothing will change. However, they will not longer appear as wolfishsunshine, but as blackwingedboy. There's no need to friend the archived blackwingedboy user, because no new entries will be posted at that address. Therefore, there's nothing for you to do, and in fact reading this post was an interesting waste of your time.

My feeling about my constant desire to split in twain, and my tendency to want to see wolf and raven as two separate, not entwined pieces of my energetic makeup are very obvious to me. That's a part of this decision for sure. But mainly, I'm feeling the need to simplify things in my life, and choosing my beloved blackwingedboy as the center of linked blogs and journals makes me happy.

I expect to get all this underway by December 1st. Thanks, all.
