The Journal, Sunday, 10/29

Hey Folks,

Well, I didn’t stay up for the whole game last night but I still woke up later than my usual time. Sorry to see that Houston lost their first home game in the post season.

Plus although I’d like to watch a seven-game series, I was also kind’a hoping Houston would wrap it up at home.

This morning I tweaked my website again. Most notably, I changed the home page back to the ProWriters Blog, moved the bundles into the left sidebar, and moved Writer Resources onto a dedicated page.

And frankly, that’s about all I did today.

Back tomorrow.
