good morning, cyberspace!
Well. It’s finally here. Moving day! This is the last post that will ever be written for Smudged Thoughts; from here on out, you’ll find me over on my new blog, FeatherWick Press!
The emotions we’re currently feeling are excitement, terror, apprehension, and a wee touch of whimsy. I’m incredibly excited to keep going on this beautiful blogging adventure, but oh-so sad to let Smudged Thoughts go. As promised, Smudged Thoughts will not be leaving cyberspace, however! You can find any and all of this blog’s archives forevermore right here, since I’m far too much of a sentimental squash to get rid of this blog entirely. So even though all new content will be posted over on FeatherWick, rest assured that you will never lose original Smudged Thoughts content! (which is more for me than anyone else, I believe, but it’s still nice to know.)
If you’re following me on Instagram under Smudged Thoughts, make sure you switch over to my featherwickpress account! This is where I post behind-the-scenes content about my life and blog and writing, as well as some occasional extras…
To all the friends I’ve made through this blog: thank you. Thank you for sticking with me along this wild ride! Thank you for your support and comments and all the many stories we’ve made together! I sincerely hope that you’ll come along with me to FeatherWick Press!
Last, but never the least, here is the link to our brand new blog! Posts will be published weekly on Fridays, so keep your eyes peeled for next week, when we talk all about goal-setting–perfect for the start of a new year, amiright?

TALK TO ME, PEASANTS!
I don’t even know what questions to ask here! With Christmas fast approaching, I feel like everything is turning turtle. So go ahead and tell me your plans for this final week of December! Are you spending time with family? Sitting curled up on the couch with a good book and a mug of tea while you watch the winter storms roll through? Are you–like me–planning world domination?
Whatever your plans, let’s talk about ALL OF THE THINGS down in the comments below! And as always, until next time…

Smudged Thoughts 
Awwww, Kenzie! This is bittersweet as I’ve had SUCH lovely memories reading this wonderful blog. The sheer amount of smiles and laughs your posts have brought me over the years, my goodness! Smudged Thoughts will forever hold a special place in my heart. But at the same time, I am ECSTATIC over FeatherWick and all the epic things to come from it. It’s so exciting how you’re spreading your wings (feathers and all! *grins*) and doing even more epic things. I cannot wait to see all that comes from it! I know it’s going to be AMAZING.
*gives Smudged Thoughts a hearty hug and feeds it cookies*
I love this place but I cannot wait to follow along on the next step of your journey. *rushes over to go see the new shiny FeatherWick*

OH MY GOODNESS THAT FEATHER PUN GOT ME. 🤣 I’m also suffering from the bittersweet feeling! Smudged Thoughts was my stepping stone into so much, but I’m so excited to keep it moving forward in new and (hopefully more me-ish!) ways!
(Smudged Thoughts thanks you heartily for the cookies, lol!!)
Meep!!! Thank you so so much for coming along for the ride, Christine! Your friendship means so much to me!

I’ve loved following your posts here, and I look forward to following them over at your new blog in this new chapter!
I wasn’t planning on world domination, but now that you’ve mentioned it, maybe I should give it a go….. hmmmm… can I borrow a pitchfork?
I’m spending lots of time with my family, we’re in the middle of a lovely 2-week long “staycation” and it’s been so so so perfect and restful and just… lovely.
Merry Christmas, dear friend!

Meep!!! Thank you so very much, Jenelle! You have no clue how much that means to me!
Oooh! You may absolutely have a pitchfork! I have quite the supply in my closet… I’ll find one for you!
Aw! That sounds like the PERFECT way to spend the holiday season. Especially getting 2 weeks off around this time! A restful season is much needed for me soon. XD
Merry Christmas, Jenelle! Thank you for being such a wonderful friend and a mentor in my writing life!
