Content FiestaDear fledglings, Somehow I survived. 36 hours stuck in flight limbo can take a toll on even the toughest bird, but I'm back in the nest, fierce as ever. Beware insects, one and all! (Especially you slimy little spambots.) Thanks to a beautiful two-week experience with Virginia Commonwealth University's Spanish & Cultural Competence for Health and Human Services program, I now have dozens upon dozens of photos of Guadalajara, Mexico. During the program, I learned a lot about public health in Mexico, including how medicine and folklore intersect on institutional and familiar levels throughout Jalisco. That's not to mention all of the unscheduled learning that took place, too. Guadalajara is--you guessed it!--a historical city and I definitely explored it as much as time allowed. There's plenty that's Quail Bellish about the place. As a result of the knowledge gathered on my travels, we're going to have something of a content fiesta here at QB. Be prepared to re-discover the Mexico you thought you knew. QB will kindly instruct, nudge, and peep. In fact, you're going to be seeing a lot more content on the website overall. That's because for the first time in a while, I have swaths of unscheduled time. You can bet I'll be updating the website and encouraging the rest of The QB Crew to do so, too. (Hey, whatever snags us full-time jobs as QB aficionados!) I can't wait to begin sharing with my favorite fledglings. After all, these SD cards need some cleaning up... See you on the Interwebs! Feathery hugs, Christine Stoddard/Luna Lark  The Breadcrumbs widget will appear here on the published site.

The Big MoveExecutive Editor Christine Stoddard is moving to Washington, D.C.--an established city for journalists, a blossoming city for designers, and home to one of the biggest theatre scenes in the United States. Sure, the city doesn't have the most creative reputation, but that's only because its political one is so huge that it can't help but overshadow the rest of the metro's industries. In truth, there's a lot going in D.C. best politics (not that our fledglings don't enjoy the occasional feminist rant.) What does Christine's new life mean for QB? More fun, more mayhem, and more content. Don't worry. This blog will keep rolling! Many of the blog's main contributors are staying in Richmond, but Christine's move also means a greater potential for D.C. contributors to join The QB Crew. Expect a jump in D.C.-based content, as well as content about the surrounding area, from Northern Virginia to Southern Maryland to Baltimore and more. Unlike Richmond, D.C. is also home to many big traveling centers, which will make it easier for Christine to skip town and tell you more about the world through writing and photography. Trips to Philly and NYC alone will be much easier. So here's to wanderlust--and many new adventures! Because the imaginary, the nostalgic, and the otherworldly exist everywhere.
