About the facebook. I'm still in confusion. I think it's because I'm listed as a writer, and it's not a "personal" page. I don't even have the option on my page for search bar to search facebook pages.

I don't know, it's weird. I wish I could get it to work, so I could interact with Sucker's page.

Excellent job, Hannah! I've enjoyed all that I've read so far. :))

"A standalone book app could cost $15,000 to $20,000." How about just a few hundred instead? http://dld.bz/a75x2

Jayrod Garrett replied to the discussion 'What did you blog about Today?' in the group Blogging about Books and Writing!
I shared a post titled "The Birth of the Diversity Blogs" today.  I wanted to share about the various cultures and peoples of the world and I figured that I should make that the theme of my blog.  :D Enjoy!
