More Than Provoked - My Introspective Vegan Story & Podcast

I have decided to created another blog with a podcast: Once Upon A Vegan. I'm doing so because I dug myself into a corner when I created Provoked. I started early on using this blog as an almost exclusively satirical forum, where I would launch into diatribes regularly... or as I observed the darkest elements of the animal abusing world. I started feeling that I was restricted to only this; and I just couldn't post more personal things, like whatever was on my mind... Such as changing parts of my world and how I'm negotiating my way through them... I have discoveries, insights, and questions; And things I just need to talk about in a more intimate way than what I feel I've allowed myself here. I'll still post under Provoked those things that fit here... No, I am not giving up my outlet for my sarcastic nature! :) I intend to say the same things at Once Upon A Vegan, but include many thoughts I'd leave unspoken here. I hope my readers will journey with me as I navigate my way, and awkwardly attempt reclaim my innocence... and to tell My Vegan Story.

When are you going live?

Hi Ana! I did post my first podcast already... You can find it at the top of the page on the "Once Upon a Vegan" link...

I hope this weekend to do another (there's so much more I want to talk about)... "moral shock", relationships with non-"animal rights" people, and just other thoughts that I have... You know, stuff you can say - better than type out. My fingers can't keep up with what I want to say half the time; if you know what I mean?

Thanks for your interest!

serenity! Gosh your back! I thought I'd lost you "somewhere" on the web. Last I checked your blog was down... (and I worried too) --- hoping everything's okay?

Thanks for staying in touch! And literally listening to "my story" :)
