OK, so technically my blogoversary was on December 2nd, but I wanted to start fresh in 2010.

Executive Summary

Announcing new changes:

1. I am only doing personal finance posts from now on
2. Minimalism & Organization finally has a new home (The Everyday Minimalist)
3. Style and Fashion has a new home (Style on a String)

I am the proud mama of 3 blogs now.

Thanks for coming out!

THE DETAILS

#1: I’m only doing personal finance posts from now on

This really shouldn’t be a huge surprise to most of my regular readers.

At least, I hope not!

Fabulously Broke in the City started as a personal finance blog.

Only personal finance.

I blogged about my journey to get out of $60,000 of debt with my handy budgeting tool.

And while I will still refer back to it occasionally…

I find writing How-Tos horribly boring and it’s starting to show.

It’s time to move on.

However, I’ve covered a lot of ground already, so take a look at my Money posts, Debt and Saving and Investing & Retirement pages.

#2: Minimalism/Organization officially has a new home

And it’s called…

The Everyday Minimalist

Some of you may have noticed this new name popping up here and there on your blogs.

Yes, it’s still me. 🙂

Why the change in name?

But it’s another persona, or side of me, hence the change in the name.

(And the avatar at least gets my hair colour right. But I am definitely not as skinny, Rae!)

Why the new blog?

I felt as though everyone was getting the wrong impression about what being a minimalist meant.
And without a doubt, minimalism has not been a part of this blog lately.

(Big thanks to Concojones, an astute reader who pointed that out to me).

It was in testing mode since September 2009, and I am formally announcing it now.

It’s a more.. dare I say, thoughtful blog.

#3: Style & Fashion officially has its own home now!

And because I can’t keep my designing fingers still, I started a third blog.

I actually debated whether to reveal this site or not, but .. what the heck.

Style on a String

Again, new name: Serena from Style on a String.

Full disclosure, it is still not my real name, but it’s an old, not-really-used-any-more nickname I’ve had from childhood from close friends mostly.

It comes from the fact that I used to be really quiet and painfully shy, which everyone mistook for being serene and calm.

Then I left elementary school and started using my formal name for everything.

Revealing myself bit by bit! Eeep!

Why the new, third blog?

Because I have too much fashion/style stuff, and it’s overwhelming this blog.

I’ve also realized that I just like posting too much.

And 3 blogs seems to be a good way to balance out my posts.

So WTF do I call you?

Hopefully not bad names, but anything you choose is fine.

If you know me as FB, then FB.

I am now the proud mama of 3 blogs:

Fabulously Broke in the City

The Everyday Minimalist

Style on a String

Enjoy!
