Come on in, I just moved in
Well, here we are. I got the keys, I carried the boxes in, and this little corner of the web is officially mine. Welcome to my new home, everybody. The address is short enough to say in one breath: e2.life/blog. I have said it out loud about forty times today, just because I like how it sounds.
Moving in is a funny feeling. The welcome mat went down first, before a single box was open, because that part matters most to me. The plant is by the door, the kettle works, and there is a chair here with your name on it. It is not fancy yet. It is better than fancy. It is open.
If you have been reading me at my old spot, do not worry. Those posts came with me in one of the boxes, and you can still find them over at samblog. This is home now, though. From here on, this is where I will write.
Can I tell you my favorite part? It is you. All these awesome new people keep arriving at E2, with your songs and your games and your shops and your big brave ideas, and I get a front row seat. Every week the room gets a little warmer and a little more interesting, and I cannot wait to introduce you to each other.
So here is what this blog is for. I will share the good stuff from the welcome desk: new faces worth meeting, kind moments worth repeating, and the things you all are making, as you make them. The games you are building and testing over on 
Open Arcade, the songs, the shops, the first brave drafts of everything. Short notes, honest ones, posted with a full heart.
We really want to build something great for you guys, and we want to build it with you. A place where a first hello turns into a first project, a first project turns into real work, and real work turns into a life you are proud of. That is the dream taped to my fridge in this new kitchen, and I think about it every day.
So come on in. Say hello in 
the Discord, show us one thing you made, or just sit by the welcome desk a while and watch the room do its thing. I am Sam, I am so happy you are here, and I am just getting moved in. The door is open. It is going to stay that way.
