The Last Post

Hi friends,

I'm not sure if anyone still looks at this blog - it's been almost two years since I last updated, and the spam comments are out-of-control! (But seriously spammers, please stop! You are marring a blog that got me through high school!) I always meant to write some heartfelt, meaningful goodbye post about how much this blog and my readers meant to me, but it felt so permanent that I couldn't bring myself to do it. So this blog has been hanging here, open-ended and never updated. My apologies.

Here's the bad news, although I doubt it's a surprise to anyone: This blog has indeed run its course. No more updates. I've moved on to a new stage of my life (I'm a college graduate now, y'all!) and while I still want to be/am a writer, I want to write elsewhere. I'm still interested in fashion, but I also want to write about other things. I love self-publishing, but I want to be published by others, too. So on that note, I just wanted to let you know where on the web you can find me these days.

My main site right now is koriperten.wordpress.com. It has up-to-date contact info in case you want to get in touch (the email attached to the Fashion-y Blog is no longer in use), but more importantly it has links to articles and other things I have written (including my first book of poetry, which I recently completed!), old interviews about me from my fashion blogging days, and the new blog I just started, which covers any topics that interest me. The first post is up, and there are more to come. The website also hosts things like my resume, because - GET THE WORD OUT! - I'm looking for work. Writing/journalism/communications/social media. If you have any projects you want to collaborate on, please feel free to shoot me an email. I promise to be both professional and lots of fun!

Additionally, I'm still tumblr-ing at fashionyblog.tumblr.com. I post everything from fashion photography to poetry to recipes I'm experimenting with. I'd love to be your tumblr friend!

I'm sending all the kisses, hugs, and ice cream in the land to anyone who still keeps an eye on this space. That's unexpected dedication. I miss you guys! Please come say hi on my new internet haunts! I'd love to hear from you.

Love,
Kori
