There, now doesn’t that feel better? Notice anything different up there?

Just in case you missed it, this site is no longer dancaseblog.com. You can obviously get here if you type dancaseblog.com or use a link to that URL, but you aren’t really going there. Instead, the wonders of modern technology will deliver you to http://www.danielfcase.com.

If you have bookmarks or feed readers pointed here, please update them to the new address.

So, why the change? From this point forward, my identity as a novelist is no longer Dan Case. Instead, I’m using my full name, Daniel F. Case. This will help eliminate any confusion between me and the other Dan Case who’s a writer—and who owns dancase.com, and with whom I’ve been confused a time or two. And in addition to that benefit, Daniel F. Case just sounds classier and more authorial, more like James Scott Bell or William P. Young or Kermit T. Frog.

Oh, yeah—and I own the domain name, too.

In other news:

We’re officially past the euphoric “Hey, I won Genesis!” phase and into the “Don’t waste it, you idiot!” phase, with all its writing and re-writing and proposals and re-proposals. I’ve chosen an agent who’s the right fit for me, Rachelle Gardner with Wordserve Literary. We’re close to sending out proposals, which will usher me into the “start another project to keep my mind off the long wait that follows” phase.

I’ve got plenty to do while waiting. Books to write, ideas to hatch, magazines to query, and, of course, websites to “Danielize.”

Stay tuned!
