There are so many wonderful things about being an independent artist. For one, nobody can tell me what to do. I could record an album with the sound of my hair growing and nobody could stop me.
But there's one horrible thing.
WHEN THINGS GO WRONG.
For those following, there's been a losing battle between me and my website at Terami.com. The battle usually involves maintaining the message boards - and despite the help and management of certain wonderful people (Carter, Alli) it's a battle of my clear defeat.
For the past...oh...2 months I haven't been able to access my server. I couldn't update anything. For about 6 months I've been without a method to send mailing list email. And then, this weekend, my message boards VANISHED. I don't know what happened. The internet is slowly cutting off my limbs and watching me grieve.
So I totally and completely give up.
Sometime in early 2005 (February?) I will get a new server. I will rebuild my mailing list. I will re-open the message boards. Until then, know that the reason things are falling apart has nothing to do with my wishes. It has to do with things becoming overwhelming, technical, and frustrating. I made the decision to letitgo until the album is finished...at which point I can then focus all my attention on the beauty that is The Internet.
Many, many apologies.
