How do I let people know I’m trying?

I post a couple of times a week and promote my posts through a variety of channels in hopes that people will read what I’ve written. Well, I recently found out that Facebook is ruining what progress… Continue reading How do I let people know I’m trying?

Update 2: Good thing I had “Update 1.” The A’s and Rangers are tied for the AL West and play one more game tonight against each other.… Continue reading Let’s Go O’s!
