change is around the bend

I own this thanks to my thoughtful gal pal, Natalie!

I've been contemplating this blog for many months now. I went through a phase where I thought I might just shut it down. I've considered starting a whole new blog with a whole new URL. I've been staring at the wall trying to come up with a new name to better reflect the change in content. I've been wondering how or if I could transition away from the "Lola Rain" brand that I've created. So, here's what I got: I will be staying on the Lola Rain train, but this blog will have a new name shortly. I wanted to mention this change a bit before it happens so people aren't confused. At the same time, I'll be giving my blog a once over and changing some of the layout and graphics. Things will look different, but it will be the same blog you are used to (if you've been reading it the past year or so). I'll explain more as these changes start to happen. I'm excited, though, because I feel like streamlining everything will push me further in the direction my writing (and life/career) is already headed. 

Thank you for all the kind feedback and encouragement I've received this past year! I take it all as a sign that I am on the right path. Your words have inspired me to dig a little deeper and share even more.
