New Year, New Start, New Host
Hi Guys!
I have some exciting news to share with you all today! Exciting and slightly scary as well. Scary for me, anyway.
At the end of this week I will no longer be hosting this blog on Blogger. I have decided that my time on this hosting site has come to an end and have decided to make the move to a self-hosted WordPress blog. The process has been a lot harder than I thought it would be but I know that in the long run it’ll be worth it – I have many things planned for you all!
Essentially, I was hoping to just make an easy transition to the new blog but after some long thinking and sitting down and sorting (and okay, maybe a little bit of pulling my hair out too), I’ve decided to put a post here about the move as I will no longer be a part of GFC. Therefore, if you follow this blog via that method, you’ll no longer see my posts in your feed.
Therefore, I am sending out this warning now to let you know.
However, there will be a re-direct from this blog and e-mail subscriptions and RSS feed subscribers will be moved over in the transition – hopefully without issues!
The new blog is not quite ready for public view yet, but I do have it set up with NetworkedBlogs so if you wish to get an e-mail notification when the new blog goes live, feel free to sign up to the linky list below. If not, I’ll still be updating my Facebook Page and my Twitter with links to my posts.
In the meantime, posts will be going up on this blog as per usual until the transition occurs (possibly on Friday if I have the time!), so for now, you can simply sit back and relax for a bit but I just wanted to warn you all.
Thank you for being such great followers, you’re all amazing <3

Thanks for the heads up. This is a nerve racking time, no doubt, but I wish you well and look forward to seeing your posts at the new location.

Faye, we’re clearly total twins! I’ve been planning my move to self-hosted wordpress too (made the decision after blogink and am just waiting to sort out some financials) this year so I hope it all goes well for you!
