Wha Happened? 

(Ignore everything I said about my new look. I just changed it to another new, but classic look, so that “snappy” one is already kaput!  However, the rest of this post is still the same. Sheesh! I’m exhausted playing with Blogger.) 

All I set out to do was restore my threaded comments and fix the constant error messages I was getting from #[email protected]!!% Blogger when I wrote a post.

And Viola (a girl I once knew), I got this.

I’m still not sure how to manage it, but I’m working my way through. It took me half an hour to find the Compose page.

I kind of like the choices it gives me, but it’s not “homey.” Should a blog be homey or snappy? That’s the question I keep asking myself.

So vote okay?

Do you like this slick, very cool style for me? Did you have trouble figuring out which way you wanted to view it? That THINGY in the upper left hand corner gives you all kinds of options. You have to pull up all my links that used to be on the right side, by clicking on one of those SLIDING-OUT-WHATEVERS. You can see how technically challenged I am. Even my vocabulary is limited when it comes to explaining this bloggy world.

New Writing Challenge

I wrote a whole piece for COMPOSERS FOR RELIEF, but then discovered the sound track I’d written it for was already taken. My fault. I didn’t check the list first. I think my new blog is to blame.

Anyway I chose another sound track. Here’s the LINK to that one. I think it’s very beautiful. Now all I have to do is write some words. 

If you’d like to sign up, click on the Composers link above, join in the fun and help with the relief effort.

The Writing Barn

Looks like a great place to write.

Here’s a great chance for anyone with a complete or almost complete draft of a Middle Grade book. Check out the offer. I’m thinking of it.
