When I started blogging about three years ago, I just wanted to discuss my journey as person (mom, choreographer, teacher, chauffeur, laundry goddess, pretty good cook, lousy housekeeper) and a writer. Slowly, the blog morphed into a place where I shared my knowledge of book marketing and love of children's and YA literature though I was still a writer-on-the side. Now, I am counting the months until I can see my work in print. The blog is evolving again into a place where part of the story is about me as an author (wow!!!). And, though I still write in stolen moments and, often, with a preschooler tugging at my arm, I don't quite feel like a writer-on-the-side anymore.
So, do I rename the blog after myself (feels a bit egotistical yet, perhaps, rather practical)? Do I incorporate my name into the subtitle (though it might be tricky to do so and still have main title make sense)? Or do I leave well enough alone?
Sighs.
Does not like decision-making.
Especially on Wednesdays.

We recently had the same discussion over on our site. It's tough to know how to handle these things in a way that is going to maximize followers and be meaningful to them. We wish you luck in your deliberations!
I think you should keep your title, but maybe add your name in the subtitle. :)
Decisions are hard for Libras!
For the record, I love your title.
Since my blog has the most egotistical name ever, I'm not sure I can give an unbiased opinion about changing it.
How about Writer-at-Starbucks? :-)
Seriously, I like your current title.
I like the happy picture from your previous post, but the serious one "looks more like you."
Thanks for all the suggestions, Adventures, Pam, Sylvie & Julie! Decisions...argh!!!
Stasia, you're a Writer on the Inside and Outside now!
You're so sweet, Suzanne! I'm certainly trying. - Stasia
