A Big Birthday! (Contest) | Name News | Scoop.it
That’s right, the Name Warehouse has been up and running for a year (well, almost, 9 days to go). That’s pretty darn remarkable, and I never would have guessed that I’d make it this long, much less end up with such a lovely group of individuals reading and supporting my content as wonderfully as all of you do. So thank you. I love all of your readership so incredibly much and I’m grateful for all of your participation in the various series, commenting opportunities, and form submission requests
