This may come as a bit of sur­prise, but I’ve decided to close up MMeOw.

I felt this way a few months ago and was encour­aged by sup­port from fel­low LOTRO blog­gers and pod­cast­ers. I stuck it out and, in many ways, I was happy I did.

Still, I know what it is that I’d like to do … unfor­tu­nately, that means let­ting go of this site. There are too many other things I need to do and wish to accom­plish, things I want to learn, places I want to go. True, MMeOw in and of itself is not pre­vent­ing those things nec­es­sar­ily, but I spend a sig­nif­i­cant amount of time, money and energy on it. While I still love the game and plan on con­tin­u­ing to play it reg­u­larly (it’s almost all I play it seems!), my pas­sion for writ­ing about it and main­tain­ing this site has dwindled.

I’ve really loved writ­ing here and I hope other peo­ple have enjoyed it as well. The LOTRO and extended MMORPG com­mu­nity have really been won­der­ful toward me and this site. I’ve appre­ci­ated the kind words and help along the way. I’m prob­a­bly most sorry that it’ll dis­ap­point some peo­ple in doing this, but I think you’ll for­give me .

MMeOw was some­thing I wanted to do because, at the time, there were rel­a­tively few LOTRO blogs out there. Now there’s quite a few of excel­lent ones out there, headed up by some really great peo­ple. I think this makes it a lit­tle eas­ier to move on (please don’t read this wrong, as I don’t want to over­state my impor­tance). I encour­age any­one who vis­its here to check out the LOTRO Combo Blog, which links to quite a few of them. As of right now, I plan on leav­ing that run­ning indef­i­nitely; how­ever, if any­one wants to pick up the reins on that, let me know.

If you still want to know what I’m up to, you can visit my more per­sonal site, radish​.me, or fol­low my non-MMeOw twit­ter.

Thanks!
