This blog is a place for me to write about classical music issues that don't fit so well in the other forums in which I participate.
I've been a member of the Well since 1990 and I co-host the classical music conference there. The Well is members-only and you have to pay to belong ($5/month for Web-only access, $15/month for telnet/ssh access). The Well is also mostly conversational; think pieces don't always fit in with the flow of discussions there.
I've participated for even longer in a paper forum called an amateur press association, or apa. Apas originated in science fiction fandom. The apa I'm in focusses on relationships of all kinds, so classical music is off topic. Most of the other participants also aren't especially interested in the kinds of musical issues that interest me.
I wanted someplace more public than either the Well or the apa. So: a blog.

Hello, Lisa, and welcome to the cultural blogosphere (yes, we do make a distinction between the cultural blogosphere, and that other, thoroughly disreputable, part ;-)). Just added your weblog to my Culture Weblogs listing (on www.soundsandfury.com), and look forward to reading your postings here in future.
Best,
ACD (A.C. Douglas)
Thanks, ACD. I'm adding a link to Sounds & Fury. Disreputable, hah! Some of my best friends have political blogs. ;-)
