A New Year, A New Look for 2024

New Theme Here we are in a new year and I finally found a new WordPress theme that I think will work with Experience Writing. I’m trying “Hever” which is supposed to adapt across devices, moved all the widgets to the footer, and most importantly, doesn’t have that weird text overlap spacing issue with headersContinue reading “A New Year, A New Look for 2024”

Revision: The Plan and then What Really Happened

Today’s revision was inspired by two things. One, last weekend at writers meet-up we were each challenged to come up with a goal to accomplish during the two weeks before our next meet-up. I announced to the group that I would have a re-write of my first chapter done. This felt like a reasonable goalContinue reading “Revision: The Plan and then What Really Happened”
