That said, having myself recently moved from blogging for a major media company to blogging for myself, I can tell you that in the near term I'm blogging a little less often now that no one is paying me to blog. I can also tell you that there is life -- and opportunity -- after blogging for big media. You'll be fielding some interesting offers, I promise. And you might just decide to follow all that career advice you've been giving and do something that surprises people. Whatever you do, please figure out a way to let your fans know. I'll really miss this blog, Lisa. Marci Alboher I'll agree with the other commenters that I hope you blog on your own, assuming that's something you even want to do.

Just think of it as the push you needed to lift yourself out of your 12-year rut (c'mon, you never would have left if this opportunity didn't present itself) and move on to bigger and better things. The world is your oyster! And I hope you negotiated for the right to call your new blog "WiP" This is the start of something big for you, Lisa.
