The Devil’s Name is Dullness
Title – quote by Robert E. Miller Today’s Blogging101 assignment is to review our blog’s name and Tagline. When I first created my blog, I spent a lot of time mulling (musing) over the title. Like others have mentioned, I didn’t realise that my blog’s name and it’s URL didn’t have to be the same 😋…
