In think there's such an insane drive to make things happen yesterday that we've all lost our sense of time and reality. The Internet has made writing more accessible and created space. It's a democratic tool, but it doesn't mean that you will developing a following from making a couple of comments about life outside your window. It takes time and commitment. I appreciate the honesty! Thank you for reminding people to be patient. In think there’s such an insane drive to make things happen yesterday that we’ve all lost our sense of time and reality.

You've got to play the game. But I hate the ads and product reviews and extra junk littering blogs. I'm not much of a comment person --I don't comment just for a comment's sake as I'm picky and only want to comment when I really like a blog which is rare --but if it will help get the word out or get me more comments, then I can maybe try harder to find ones I really like, as I love comments on what I write.

I agree with Felicity above when it comes to good grammar, proper punctuation and your best writing when publishing a post.

Perhaps this goes hand-in-hand with "write good content," but I think "read your writing before you hit 'post'" deserves its own line item. Everyone makes spelling and grammar mistakes, but why show yours off to the whole world if you can avoid it? Thank you for the tips, and for the laugh.
