Well everyone, what a weird day.It looks as if my website finally listed with Google. I'm sure it's ranked at the very bottom, but heck! I'll take it.There is something sort of out of this world to know that I have a website that is now searchable through a search engine. I'm in the final three weeks of this semester. After I finish, I'll be giving my website full-time attention until I start next semester in January. Everything I've done so far with the site has felt like an act of endurance.

I have a GREAT reason to celebrate!This Sunday, I bit the bullet and bought my domain. This goal wasn't to have a picture perfect website ready to launch by November 26th, 2020.

I've been on supportive FB groups but none as personally invested as the community here at WA. What's more, the overwhelming support of WA by WA members speaks to its genuine ability to support and grow their member's websites and businesses. My first week on WA has been a feeding frenzy of good tidings, e

Three years ago, I called it quits. I rang up Bluehost and canceled my domain. Wordpress? Deleted all traces of my baby blog's existence from the inter-world. My blog took a swirlie down the crapper as I curled up in a ball in my closet and hid from the world. Well, kinda something like that.Why it failed wasn't a mystery, though. It wasn't lack of imagination. Lord knows my brain never shuts off. (Some would say never shuts up.)It wasn't because I didn't have anything to say. Hell, give me my
