# End of Year Blogging Break and Going Off Grid

This will most likely be my last blog post for the year. I am planning to take off a couple weeks not just from writing but also from spending pretty much any time online. During this time I look forward to reading a number of books that have piled up in my queue (both non-fiction and fiction – thanks for the many recommendations in comments here and on Twitter). I have taken breaks like this [several times](http://gawk.it/search?search_type=blogs&forum=continuations&sortby=&query=blogging+break) before and have always felt refreshed by them.

In addition to the normal changes I will also try a new experiment. My email autoresponder will make it clear that I will not be able to read all email coming in during this period and so people should not expect a reply at all (in the past I still promised a reply just a slower one). It will be interesting to see how that works out and I will definitely report back on the results after the break.

In the meantime, Happy Holidays everyone!
