With the end of 2020 almost here I have decided that I really want to do more writing on my blog. The first step was enrolling in the WordPress.com Blogging for Beginners course which I did last week.
The second step was to find a new fresh theme for my blog … I spent most of this last weekend looking at various theme options. One advantage to the my WordPress Premium account is that I have access to all Premium themes at no extra cost! After viewing many possible options looking at Live Demos and then trying/customizing on my site I decided on the Dicot by DesignOrbital theme (https://wordpress.com/theme/dicot).
My old theme was feeling too dark in today’s world …
For me the new theme portrays a much brighter future which, I hope, reflects 2021 and beyond as the world progesses past the covid pandemic.
