Why not WOYP?

I’ve been asked why I’m doing this as a completely new blog and not repurposing Writing On Your Palm.

Mostly, I suppose it’s that I’m not all that interested in mobile technology anymore. At least, I’m not all that interested in PDAs and using them for writing. I do some editing on my Treo, yes, but I do far more these days on the PC and I wanted the new blog to reflect that. Frankly, if I get a burr up my ass and decide to do everything on paper with composition notebooks and a typewriter, this blog should still be relevant.

It ain’t about the tools. It’s about the writing.
