You might notice Sacred and the Profane looks a little different. I’d like to think our new layout looks less full of itself and will be updated more regularly. While my initial goal for this site was to talk about religion in the news my biweekly (if that) posting made it pretty clear that I wasn’t really reading the news anymore. My time has been pretty occupied with the dichotomy between sacred and profane in my own life so there wasn’t the attention span required to analyze anyone else’s.

The new format also makes it much easier to post via my blackberry. Technology snob? Washington intern? No, I’m just a busy mom and freelance writer and my laptop time is pretty focused on working or reading the adventures of Secret Agent Josephine. If you’ve received an email from me in the last few months odds are high the blackberry was the composition object. There seems to be more time foremails and hopefully blogging when I’m letting Audrey finish a nap in the car or while I’m waiting for a meeting to start.

So I hope you like the new format and hook me up with those comments I love so much.I’ll be tweaking things here and there so if there’s anything you’d like to see, please let me know!
