The past several months I’ve been working on my blog with the last few puffs of energy I have at the end of the day. In the midst of diapers, kindergarten prep, a traveling Hubby, trying to lose weight and freelancing, my blog gets a little lost.
It’s sad really because She’sWrite gives me much joy. Soooo, I’m moving it up on the priority list and as part of that I am introducing a new feature. It’s called… wait for it… no really, wait. It’s … Read more ...
