Relaunch
A sunset from Captiva, Florida; used here so I could have a nice image for this post
Now that it’s the summer, I obviously have quite a bit more free time to spend on View from a Farley. I had initially intended to do a grand relaunch with a great new design by Juxtaprose. They recently designed CommonCraft’s new website and I was duly impressed. I definitely intend to get a custom theme soon, but I realized that it would be unwise to spend so much on a theme right now. I intend to go back to Juxtaprose when I do decide to get View from a Farley redesined; they are remarkably professional and did everything they could to fit my needs.
As a temporary long-term measure, I’ve put up a new theme which is very nice, but not custom.
Over the next days, I will be adding posts that I’ve stockpiled. I should have some good material for a while. If you’re looking for some immediate reading, check out the newly updated about page.

Signs of Life
This is my first post in quite some time, but it’s not content. That will come later this evening or tomorrow. This is, however, my notice to all readers that the blog is still alive. I’ve changed the theme (I grew slowly less fond of the old one) and I’m in the process of “moving in” to the new theme. There are several things I’m working on related to that, but send me an email if you notice anything.
So why the long absences? Sure, I’ve been busy, but that’s not why I haven’t been posting. It’s not that I haven’t had any time. But somehow there’s a limit to how much I can write in a day, how much new material I can create. School is very demanding of my creative abilities, so my creativity has usually dried up by the evening. I’m on spring break now, so we’ll see how things go.
