Taking My Leave

Unfortunately, Know More Media, the network that hosts (and owns) the Lending Leaves blog is discontinuing its business. While I could continue writing this blog, I feel that it is time to pursue other opportunities.

I have enjoyed writing about mortgage financing, and about mortgage industry news. I will be sorry to end this chapter in my blog writing career, but I am also hopeful for the blogging industry in general, and excited about my new prospects.

My best to my readers, and I hope to see you around the blogosphere.
