Maybe I should make this ‘update’ thing a little more updatey, huh?
Things are happening just a lot slower than I’d like. The new Quill Sword Shop, via Spreadshop, is up and running. New designs should arrive each week. Quill Shop still exists but is no longer directly linked to the website. The designs will be migrated to Quill Sword Shop as soon as possible.
The homepage is still under renovation. This should be completed by October.
New email to contact Quill Sword: quillsword@proton.me The old email will be monitored for a few more months.
Posting schedule will be weekly at least through September. I’m working to get back to biweekly by October. Late October will likely be more than that. You’d think there was an election or something.
Video and audio will be included on every post where they are available. The intention is to make a video for every post. We’ll see how that goes. There will be at least one per week, however.
The newsletter is being retooled as a posting notice. When all the posts – video, audio and text – are up a notice will be sent. Sign up will be available by next week.
And that’s all for now, folks!

Fixin’ to get ready to start to go!
My grandmother had a maid that always said that whenever it was time for her to leave. Well, I’m not leaving but things are changing for Quill Sword!
First up, for the month of December, starting December 1st, there will only be two posts a week on Monday and Wednesday. You may have noticed I’m behind on the video upload so the extra time will help keep me caught up but the real reason is that Quill Shop is getting a long overdue update! New products will be added throughout December – just in time for all your snarky merchandise needs!
In (hopefully) January, the shop along with the entire site will be getting a professional makeover! There’s a lot of behind the scenes stuff to be done in preparation for that which is another reason for the reduced posting schedule.
In the meantime, sign up for the new News I Use newsletter! A quick weekly rundown of the most important events of the week and a few – and I do mean few – lines about why they matter. Three to five events with links to news articles if you want to catch up even more but the newsletter itself will be short.
Very short – I’m a cranky old lady. I don’t have time for no fancy schmancy longer than your arm newsletter!
Anyway, that’s what’s going on here at Quill Sword! The changes will be small, hardly noticeable at first, but watch this spot! We’re fixin’ to get ready to start to go to a bigger, better Quill Sword!

No posts this week. Working on updates to website. See y’all next Monday!

So, I took an impromptu vacation – well, let’s just say life happened and I had some quick catching up to do. Nothing serious but I did take my eye off the posting ball. Apologies for my tardiness! There will be a post this evening and I’ll be back on my regular irregular daily schedule tomorrow.
Next week I will be starting a stricter posting time schedule – I’m looking at 8 am posting time. There will be an update once it’s decided.

I’ve missed two posts in the last two weeks due to illness. Not serious illness – just a little run down and then I caught a cold. Life in the disabled lane!

Okay, so I’m still under the weather and that’s putting a crimp in my ‘getting things done’ intentions. I think I’m finally over the worst but it is still day by day – at least as far as the getting it in gear thing is concerned. I plan to write several posts today so I don’t miss any more. But one way or another, I’m getting back on track!
