A few quick thoughts/Support me on Ko-fi!

Hi everybody! Thank you for reading my blog. Just wanted to do a bit of self-promotion and share some quick thoughts.

First -- if you like my work, please visit my Ko-fi page, where you can support my work by giving a one-time donation in increments of $3 (i.e. the price of a cup of coffee).

Second -- I just wanted to share some thoughts for folks who have been watching this blog for a while.

As you've noticed, this is a blog gathering together all my Twitter thread reviews over the years.

When I started the blog, I started where I could first find threads by using Twitter's easy search function. That got me as far back as late 2014.

As I explained in my previous update post, I recently noticed I was missing a lot of stuff. So I decided to go all the way back to October of 2012, which is when I first started posting on Twitter, and use a more thorough search method.

So you'll notice that the posts near the top of the blog are longer than the posts near the bottom. That's because the newer posts link directly to threads, whereas I did a lot of my earlier reviews by just tweeting out individual tweets. So, for the earlier reviews, I've just copied out all the tweets, so nobody else has to hunt them down.

The last few posts I've done have seen a lot of "firsts" for me. The first art gallery and museum reviews I did on Twitter. And the first time I went to the RedLine Contemporary Art Center, which is my favorite art space in Denver.

Also, sadly, one of the tweets mentions my sick grandmother, who, in fact, passed away in late March of 2013. I'll always remember and love her.

Anyhow, thank you for visiting. And I hope you all enjoy the content.

Couple quick items -- Ko-fi support -- My recent/future posts

Also, a quick heads up for my regular readers on my recent posts.

As you know, this blog is an attempt to make a table of contents out of all my Twitter reviews.

I had originally been using Twitter's free analytics system to find my old posts. I hadn't been able to find posts earlier than late 2014 that way. So I started from there.

I was definitely noticing gaps in my Twitter threads, just based on my memory. So I started going back through my old paper notebooks to find records of things I had done since I started using Twitter in October of 2012.

I have found a lot of older stuff using this method.

So now I have gone back to October of 2012 and am working my way forward from there.

I assume I'll still have gaps in my record. For instance -- I have no notebook documentation of things I did between May and August of 2013.

Anyway, I'm assuming it won't be long before I get back to 2015.

However, I did want to be as thorough as possible, because early 2016 was such a big emotional transition point in my life. I want to make sure that I have the previous years as fully documented as I can before I head into my documentation of 2016.

Another thing you'll notice is, through 2013, a lot of my Twitter reviews aren't in thread form. They're posted via separate tweets. So many of the 2012 and 2013 Twitter reviews will be reproduced (in text) in their entirety in the blog posts.

I'm not crazy about doing that, because I like preserving the feel of Twitter for my reviews. But it's the only practical way for the earlier reviews.

Anyway, thank you as always for visiting. I hope you enjoy!
