New member wanting to blog
-
I just joined WordPress and I wanted to look around before I started a blog, so I clicked “only username” when I started the account. I’m ready to start a blog now, but I can’t seem to find a place to do that. Do I have to start another account? I’d rather not do that, if I don’t have to.
Thanks,
Mandi -

@valsjewels did you signup for a blog and username or just a username ? If just a username then use the link above to create a blog.
