In addition to my writing here on Ophelia’s Webb I also write a popular online relationship and dating column for MaineToday.com, the Lifestyle Website for Portland Press Herald & Maine Sunday Telegram:

~ The Single Slice – A Slice of Living and Loving in Portland, ME.

    Wow, incredible blog layout! How long have you been blogging for? you made blogging look easy. The overall look of your web site is wonderful, let alone the content!

      Lola – Aw, thanks! I can’t take credit for my blog layout, I tweaked it a bit but most of the major coding/development comes from my developer Andrew Norcross (www.andrewnorcross.com) He did such a good job!

      I’ve been blogging for about two years now, so I’m starting to get a handle on it. :) Blogging is definitely fun, not always easy. There are weeks I don’t want to post or don’t want to respond to all my comment or need to work on other assignments. But since I love my little corner of the internet so much, I end up more than happy when I do it! :)
