Programming Announcement – 2022

Hello there, readers! As I did last summer, I want to give a heads-up that the next several months will see a change in the pace of material being published here at the Star Wars Living History blog. While I kind of wish this announcement was coming at the start of another long-distance backpacking adventure, the actual reasons for it are still exciting!

Somewhere around the middle of Virginia last fall I decided that when I returned from the Trail I wanted to get into the (small) business of galactic clothing, and this spring launched my Offworld Outfitters brand. At present my product line is limited to in-universe-styled spacer/adventurer’s vests, with plans for other offerings possible down the line. I trust that the previous five years’ worth of posts at this blog will sufficiently demonstrate my commitment to quality and the authentic GFFA style 😉 For those interested in a vest of your own, you can find my vest commission form and more information at the OFFWORLD.OUTFITTERS link above!

So: in order to better divide my time between this venture and some intensive projects for the Middle-earth Reenactment Society, plus for my own mental health (you can experience ‘burnout’ on hobbies, too!), over the next few months you will see me stepping back from publishing this blog on a weekly basis. What this means for you, reader: my recurring series the Galactic Style Guide will continue to drop on the last Saturday of each month, while future entries in our new Diamonds in the Rough interview series will come out on the second Saturday of each month. In between those, I may release other posts on an individual basis as time allows; in other words, as a rule you should expect two posts per month instead of four (or five).
I’m also open to the idea of reader-submitted guest articles, so if you have a fictional-reenacting or GFFA-living-history-related topic you would like to research and report on, please don’t hesitate to click the CONTACT button above and get in touch!

Thank you for reading, and may the Force be with you!
