A Shift Toward Stories While I am Traveling

I will be away from home for the next couple of months, so in order to be able to continue posting on here regularly, I am intending to focus on stories since they require less time to compose.  And I will be doing less heavy reading, which usually provides much of the source for the ideas I discuss on here.  I am planning to pause my exhaustive reading of the ESV Study Bible while I am traveling, and read The Message version of the New Testament while I am on the road for the same reason.  I am trying to continue reading and writing with the same level of regularly, just a reduced level of depth.

Stories are one aspect of what I was trying to accomplish via this site, which I haven't really focused on as much as I originally intended.  I want to tell stories that about things I have experienced that have gotten me to where I am today.  That should provide my readers with greater context for the more theoretical and academic topics that I explore.

I would like to try to post things in chronological order as much as possible, but that won't be a hard rule.  I am sure that dwelling on certain stories will invariably remind me of other previous events that I had forgotten to include up to that point.  So it will probably jump around a bit, but the general progression should be there.  And I am aiming for the same level of frequency, but no guarantees.  It is going to be a pretty busy trip, not that the last one wasn't.
