this sucks. Good luck Kate. Once The Riverdale Goddess – always The Riverdale Goddess. Blog or no blog.
I’d like to be a fly on the wall of the person (people) who initiated this. When they read her post, will that be enough? Is taking down the content really enough for them? I rather doubt it. They’ve made a decision that “The River Goddess” needed to go but now that it is (or will be once google cache disappears) won’t they expect something else from her? Won’t they insist she change something else about who she is? Why would removing her blog content be enough for these people?
I’m afraid this is only the beginning of The River Goddess’s problems at her “real job”. In my experience people who say “do this and you can keep doing that” tend to come back again with more demands, until they’ve taken everything they can possibly take – and then some.
I understand her compliance but I don’t like it. I don’t like that she was forced to choose.

Wow. 🙁
This angers and saddens me and, most sadly, doesn’t surprise me. Hence my own reticence about some topics on my own blog and where I work.
Yes….once the riverdalegoddess…..always the riverdale goddess…..Kate is reading….she is reading all that she can find about her blog being closed down……post your outrage on her blog…she is reading…her employers are reading it….it warms her sad heart….she is unclear about the future…but she embraces all of it….she is very strong….she does not know the future yet….but Kate will not shut down.
She sends her love.
