What is this crap about?

Hello everybody,

I am riding the wave of attention that has befallen on me, and using it to my advantage. So I like to announce this new blog, it is but a drop of water in the comprehensive ocean that is the "blogosphere"...
(note to all that little reference to Charles Dickens)

I am a woman on a mission. I want to get people excited about weaving. It is a real interesting subject, and a great craft or hobby to "get into".

Just a word about my weaving blog. It is "my blog", so I will make it plain to all that I am a loud, crass, 38 year old woman that will cuss and curse...that is who I am. However, it is not directed at anyone personally or said to offend anyone...this is how I talk and dammit, this is how I write...

I want this blog to be fresh, blunt and fun...perhaps injecting some youthful spark of interest in the weaving community.

Lets face it, as a fellow weaver has pointed out to me...the average age of a weaver is in the 50's. So...Lets take a bold step and get a little crazy about weaving.

Let yourself go and have fun and promote your craft.

Weaving is fun, dammit, it may not be sex, but humans have been doing it since prehistoric times...

Thank you,
Wefty Woman

I will say that if there are any comments that are considered threats or in anyway seen as having a direct negative impact on any of those who post a comment on this blog, I will become a raging lunatic and scream like a banshee! I will delete the post and ban the particular asshole for life...so there is what I consider to be a fair warning. All I ask is that we be able discuss, agree and disagree, kid around, be funny and satirical, argue and compel each other so that perhaps someone will become interested in weaving, and may just one day be the next Peter Collingwood, Theo Moorman, or Mary Atwater of our generation! And so with that I give you the floor....
