Never mind George Orwell’s 1984, Big Brother Facebook has taken its place.
As many of you already know, I had planned to merge Written in Faith Publishing’s (WIFP) Facebook page with DisabilityPride.net’s, thus allowing WIFP followers to be automatically notified of its closing and to automatically invite loyal readers of WIFP to now follow DisabilityPride.net.
But Facebook apparently has different ideas. Rather than recognizing that followers of both are mostly following me and my work, Facebook is mainly looking at each as two different subject groups. Fair point I guess to some extent, only not really, because their view eliminates one big “elephant in the room” – ME! No, I’m not commenting on my physical size, but both pages are locked to my heart and soul. I cannot be separated from either no more than the Son can be separated from the Father; no more than we can be separated from our creator; and no more can we live without air to breath or gravity to hold us on this planet.
WIFP has served its purpose well and needs to take rest. WIFP needs to let its offspring (DisabilityPride.net) take the reins for the next leg of my life’s journey. Two separate Facebook pages have become redundant and it’s time consuming to keep both, but Facebook doesn’t understand these things.
No matter though, because Facebook’s narrow-minded stance gives me the opportunity to personally invite each one of WIFP’s followers to unfollow WIFP and to now follow me on DisabilityPride.net.
I will leave WIFP’s Facebook page up until 12:00am on July 15, 2018, to allow you time to unfollow the old and follow the new. After that time, WIFP’s Facebook page will be permanently deleted.
Please continue your amazing support by following me on DisabilityPride.net on Facebook and/or www.DisabilityPride.net
Thank you, one and all, so much for your steadfast loyalty of WIFP for these last 18 years. I cannot truly ever express my gratitude and love.
God bless you all.
You are awesome!
