My long silence has a simple explanation. While Typepad is an excellent platform for blogs, it requires more effort than I am currently able to spare for it. After exploring alternatives, I have decided to freeze Stromata and shift my writing to Substack. Unhappily, the name “Stromata” has already been taken there, so my new blog is called “The Hesperian”. The range of subjects and point of view will not change.
The content of Stromata will remain here until Typepad or I expire. I hope that readers of Stromata, if any remain, will take a look at the new site.
