The Crazy Rants of Samantha Burns: Blog Takeover

Support This Site

As I'm sure you've noticed, I haven't been able to blog much these days. And, rather than taking it up when I do have time to write once in a blue moon, I've decided to stop altogether.

I am going to make this an open invitation, though, to anyone who would like to blog on this site full time. It doesn't pay - in fact it costs me more to run the site than for what I get out of it - so this won't be a paid gig. But, if you want to take over my site and gain the readership I have, then drop me a line and I may be able to get you going on that.

I will keep this site open for the OTA, as well. Therefore, there will be an open trackback article posted daily and throughout the weekend as long as it is of use to people. I hope, if nothing else, that this site can remain helpful for this purpose.

I've had an unbelievable time blogging, and I've made a heck of a lot of awesome friends on here. I'll miss my readers more than I'll miss my writing, that's for sure. But, I just can't get back to it with everything that's going on in my life presently. Who knows, you may see me around in the future kicking some celeb's butt or better yet, some half-witted, enviro-weenie's arse; but for now, I have to go.

Take care, all!

Please consider this an open trackback article.
Trackbacking info: Showcase your best work; attract new readers (linking this article in return of course). Do NOT link your open trackback post here. Use Linkfest Haven Deluxe instead. To the right, you will find OTA members who are doing open trackbacks for the day.

"Hey" (he called, from across the pond) "just keep us informed occasionally about what happens to you, eh?"

Be lucky!

You'll be missed. But, like you, I understand the pressures of earning a living and running a blog! Best of luck.

Darn Sam we go back to when we both had links totaling a dozen or so, But when you have to choose between blogging and having a life a good friend should tell you to go out and live but don't be a total stranger.

I am sure everyone wishes you well and we will keep a light burning for you.

Be assured this website is but a small part of your legacy an online commmunity of interests has grown here that will endure.

Sam, I'm sorry to hear this :-(
Although I almost never left comments, I've been a lurker on here for more than a year now. I'll miss your enjoyable posts and witty sense of humour.

I can't say Goodbye either, so I'll just say
good night, and good luck!

I'll miss you Sam - but good luck in whatever you do and where you go! You have a fan for life here!

So sorry to hear this. The blog is your baby, I know you hate to give her up. Good luck in all you do.

I don't recall seeing this come across my desk and signing off on it....

....Come back to blogging when or if time permits in the future.

Sorry to hear that Sam. I didn't post comments a fraction of the times I've looked in, but enjoyed reading it all the same.

Good luck!

Best of luck, lady.

I have enjoyed your blog for quite a while and I hope that you will contribute from time to time to this blog (whomever takes it over) even if it is just to say "hello" and let your readers know how things are going with you. Thank you for contributing quality material to the blogosphere and I wish you all the best in your private life. May God bless.

Goodbye, Sam. I'd try convincing you to stay (because I know myself I have stopped blogging oh... about 5 times and always come back) but your decision is your decision. What's got you so busy now anyway?

Posted by: Shane | July 18, 2007 07:35 AM

Sam,
Please e-mail me. This might be interesting . . . (I'm the Life in Alaska Guy)

Damnit... you're going to be missed, Sam. I can totally understand the shortage of time, though. I'd like to blame the suckiness of my blog on that, but I don't think anyone's buying it. :)

Drop in from time to time...

Posted by: That 1 Guy | July 18, 2007 08:39 PM

Good luck to you in all your endeavors and we'll see you in the future around the 'sphere no doubt.

Goodbye and good nite ;>)
