Hey guys, I know I have been MIA for a long, long time. And I am here to apologize for that unintended hiatus.
It’s as if Bookish Ezioma, my vivacious and placard-carrying-literature-geek alter ego has been flung deep into my subconscious, and overridden by my other personalities who have been feeling left out, but sadly, it is not so.
The fact is that I have been having issues with my previous blogging platform for a while now, and I have been trying to fix them all along.
But they are recurrent, and no matter how hard I try to permanently fix them, something else comes up and destroys everything, and sends it crashing down.
To be honest, it has been eating me deep, because literature means a lot to me.
And the main reason I started blogging is because I wanted to share my bookish opinions with my community, and what better way to do that than to blog?
But then, blogging, like every other endeavor, has its ups and downs, and while I am not complaining about the downs, there comes a time when you have to make a firm decision to finally let go of something you cherish so much, after trying and trying.
Blogging about books gives me joy, and if I don't do this one thing that makes me happy and fulfilled, what am I doing with my life?
Since I am unable to continue doing that in my previous platform, I had to set up a new one. And I am excited to share it with you all.
The goal is to read books and share my opinions on them. And it doesn’t matter the platform I use.
What matters is that this gospel of books and literature, especially African literature, is being
spread.
And I will continue to do my best to churn out as many bookish contents as I can.
Without further ado, I would love to welcome you to my new blog. I didn't change the name, It’s still Bookish Pixie. Of course, I’m the one and only Bookish Pixie, and that’s on period.
I want to thank you for always sticking with me. Since I found my bookish community, there is this sense of belongingness that has latched onto me and has refused to let go.
You guys always read my blog posts and share your thoughts on them, and that is one thing I would never take for granted.
Thank you for the love and support you have shown me over the past year.
That Bookish Pixie is still up and running is because I have a loving family who always reads my book reviews, and for this loving family, I will continue to write.
Please subscribe to my blog, so you can get notifications of my latest posts, and also get occasional newsletters from me.
I have missed you all so much, and I cannot wait to write you newsletters again.
Alright, there you have it...
I just broke my silence.
It is nothing grand, but who’s checking?
