Welcome!

Welcome!
Welcome to my blog! I'm so glad you stopped by. I'm a writer, former dancer, and pop culture junkie who firmly believes in the Oxford Comma. I love geek-related things, but I'm not a big video gamer and I'm starting to suffer from Comic Book Hero burnout, so I'm just to the side of geek. Geek Adjacent! Please take a look around, and I hope you stay. If you do go away, please come again, and bring your friends! :) Feel free to contact me: camusr6@gmail.com.

Looking for web hosting? I recommend Bluehost!

In my experience as a web designer, I’ve found that I really like working with Bluehost for hosting and domain needs. They’re a great company with a good product, and they offer excellent tech support! I’ve been recommending them for years, because I like them, and then a friend said to me, “why don’t you join their affiliate program?” How did I not think of this before? 🙂

Well, I’ve finally done it. That means that I get a commission whenever someone joins Bluehost through my website. So If you’re looking for web hosting services, please consider signing up with Bluehost, through this link here. Thank you for your support!
