Read MoreAnna Wants to Be a Sports Writer
I’m at the age where I need to start thinking about where I want to go to college and what I want to go to college for. For a while now, I have known what I want to do. I’ve grown up around sports, and my dad is writer, so naturally, I put those two…
Read MoreMy Apologies for the Broken Forms
Thanks to Michelle for alerting me that my forms were not working. YIKES!!! I tracked down the problem and apparently when my site was recently migrated to a new server, the image verification process for all of my forms was broken.

Living up to my word of drawing the most popular designs first, I am adding a Pastor design to the Girls Can’t WHAT? Collection after receiving an influx of requests for a female preacher. While women pastors are more prevalent these days, they are still few in number. Who says girls can’t preach? Some of…
Read MoreYour Feedback is Requested
Over the last six months, I’ve done a lot of behind the scenes work to change the way Girls Can’t WHAT? operates. I based my changes off of advice from experts, comments from customers and ideas I picked up along the way. The changes have been gradual and other than the theme colors dramatically changing,…
Read MoreWays To Stay Engaged With Your Dreams
Even though I love to set goals and work towards my dreams, sometimes I’m just not motivated to do anything about them. That may seem crazy because if a dream is that important to us then we should be motivated to stay on task and keep things rolling, right? Wrong. If you haven’t noticed by…
