Not a legend but the name was fun. This is just the random stuff I've thought about and want to remember. If you find it useful, hurray! If not, you'll know me better anyway.

My Name & Quest
Today is day one of the January 2015 Blogging 101 class, and guess who joined up this time? I’ve had blogs for more than a decade now. I even help others with WordPress! While I understand all of the technical aspects of running a site, I have never focused on learning how to blog well. I’ve […]
