writing || A Brief History of this Corner of the Universe

IoanaMarch 21, 2017

Welcome! I’m so glad you’ve decided to pop by! Whether you’re visiting because you were a reader of my eight-year-old blog or just happened to find the name Mistral Spirit around the interwebs, it’s great to have you here! I’ve been blogging since 2009, and I love sharing writing that others will read and benefit from.  As my first post on this new blog, I’d like to welcome you and tell you a little bit about this blog and how it came about.

Cre84me used to be my blogging space – where I shared every little thing I thought about, created, crafted, and read. But I started it when I was 9 years old. Since then, things have changed significantly. In its last few months of life, I’d noticed the blog was taking off in two major directions, and so I decided to pack my bags, create two new blogs, and start from scratch.

The reason these two new blogs are also WordPress-hosted (read: the domain name on this one, for example, is “mistralspirit.wordpress.com”), is because I’m planning for a recession. Just kidding. I’m actually planning for university. Yep, that’s right. I’m heading off to university where the bill for a self-hosted fancy “Cre84me.info” URL just won’t cut it anymore. I’ll have to be frugal with my money, and cutting out expenses starts now.

The two blogs I’ve made are as follows. Though the exact distribution of specific types of content is still being disputed, I’ve got a very rough idea of what each blog would look like.

Mistral Spirit, for anything and everything that is largely blogging and lifestyle-oriented. I’ll be posting about my Bullet Journal adventures, art, what I’m doing, and fun lists that I think would interest my readers and benefit them directly. I’ll also be posting essays, philosophical ramblings, and literature investigations.

Silver Tome will be my personal creative outlet. My fiction writing and short stories will be posted there. May they find you at your most bored point in life.

These next few months will be about moving over and re-editing some of the posts I had over at Cre84me that I’d like to keep on my new blogs. You’ll be seeing some new content as well, though, do not fear!

If by any chance, you do want to go back and see the grandma blog of all these little blogs, Cre84me, you’ll have to visit it’s new archival location. The old domain will soon be discontinued.

If you’d like to read a bit more about me and the reasons behind the names, feel free to check out this blog’s About Page! Sorry in advance if there’s some things there that you’ve already read here.

And thanks for stopping by! My readers mean so much to me! It absolutely makes my day to hear what people think about my blogs and writings, because this truly is out of a passion to create. But a passion to create is driven by a desire for that creation to be seen.
