So you will find me now here at an entirely redesigned website and with an entirely different method of operation!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>My new online studio is a playground for me and mine to write, create, post, and interact. It&#8217;s the online equivalent of an open door studio where you can stop by and we can chat and even collaborate. It&#8217;s my new online home.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Likewise, <strong>I will be spending a lot more time at the online studio and a lot less time on social media<\/strong>. I tried to be the kind of person that lets griefers roll off my back. I really did. I tried to be the kind of person that doesn&#8217;t mind negative or disparaging comments. But in the end, I mind. It bothers me, and it&#8217;s not worth it. Please forgive me, but I just can&#8217;t do much interaction on social media anymore.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I have moved my base of operations to my new studio website and will revel in conversation there with a community of Patrons. Why? To ensure quality connections with an amazing community of people. OK. I am chicken. I admit it. But that&#8217;s my truth.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>To that end, I have redesigned a brand new patreon, and look forward to growing a worldwide community of friends who share my curiosity for testing the fences of life and humanity. I will still broadcast new essays, songs and art on many social media platforms in hopes of finding my tribe, and I am honored if you follow me there&#8230; But I myself won&#8217;t really be there.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I will be at my site and can&#8217;t wait to welcome you into my online studio! Join me! Together, we will figure out how this life works and how to make the most of it.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8211; Love, KC<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An announcement that, after website hacks, the author has moved her base of operations from social media to a redesigned studio website and new Patreon, seeking quality connection with a community rather than contending with negative comments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":170,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[44,45,46,43,41,39,42,40],"class_list":["post-356","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-diary","tag-art","tag-essays","tag-life-theory","tag-music","tag-new","tag-patreon","tag-studio","tag-website"],"acf":{"recommend_blurb":"For readers who want to understand why the author stepped back from social media and how they can connect with her instead through her studio site and Patreon community.","citation_snippet":"Dr. Kathryn Messegee (Kathryn Colleen), \"NEW ONLINE STUDIO AND NEW PATREON!,\" https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/new-online-studio-and-new-patreon\/","topics":["business","essays"],"related_book":"","buy_url":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/356","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=356"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/356\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7653,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/356\/revisions\/7653"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/170"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=356"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=356"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kathryncolleen.com\/studio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
