Just dropping by to tell you I have a new name for this blog – Victoria writes and a new address: http://victoria-writes.com. The previous address will redirect to this one so hopefully all your subs will still work but I’d be grateful if you could update any blogrolls / links, pretty please I was never [...]

Blogiversary

A year ago today I wrote my first blog post. Happy birthday blog!! Over the past 12 months, I’ve grown to really enjoy blogging and I’ve become part of an amazingly supportive and encouraging community.
