You who still visit here will now notice a new name... I have been musing for quite some time to change the name... I believe both I and the blog have outgrown 'Beyond...' I initially started 'Beyond' for a couple of reasons of which really don't matter now... However I would like to think I in some ways achieved what I needed to...
Why 'A Variegated Thread' ?? I love variegated thread and I use it a bit in my embroidery I love the unexpectedness of it - it can change within a few stitches - changing the look and sometimes the tone of the piece. The meaning of the word variegate suggests change the appearance of, especially by marking with different colors... Of course the word thread applies both to embroidery and in this case to words...
I have always seen words 'in colour'. I understand the power of words and that they can to change the appearance of a story, a message, a passage of writing - they can alter it abruptly or subtly - they can take you on a journey or 'show' you something... Words can persude you, elate you, anger you or simply offer an explanation..
This is what I hope to do with A Variegated Thread - offer differences, so you the reader won't know what to expect - sometimes reflection, or a rant, or maybe just an image which moves me... Sometimes I will talk about my life on this side of the screen, or a book which has caught my eye perhaps a tit bit of conversation I have overheard...
Whatever it is I bring it to you and I hope you will enjoy it...
Until next time...
