This week on Work-in-Progress Wednesday I wanted  to offer YOU an opportunity! What I'd like to do is have an extended Q&A session.  I know there are still a lot of you out there who don't really understand what blogging is, what I'm about, or how to do certain things.  Others of you are more experienced but may have some more in depth questions. Here's your opportunity to ask me any question you want (as long as it's appropriate, sincere, and polite).  If you have any question at all about the blog: how to do something, what I think about…
