Thank you for posting this. I read Susan’s article which I might not have found on my own. Invaluable insight.
I’m happy to have pointed you in the direction of such a useful post. 🙂
If I’ve enjoyed a post, I prefer to leave a comment … if my brain is working properly and I can put the words together, that is! Failing that, I’d definitely leave a Like.
I do see the blogging world as a community and like to connect when it feels right to do so. The slightly shy part of me does tend to stick to those bloggers whom I already know – but every now and then I dip a toe in the water and end up somewhere new … like here! 🙂
Thanks for sharing Susan’s post, Carol; it was an interesting and thoughtful read. 🙂
Wow, love the insight of this post! I completely agree with you. It should be a joy interacting with others of common interest, whether replying OR commenting!
(BTW! Just wanted to give you a heads up-remember the URL misspelling problem we spoke of in a previous conversation? I’ve resorted to making a completely BRAND NEW account and am in the process of completely switching to that blog in the near future…this time the URL is, FOR A FACT, wordsmithobservations.wordpress.com !!) And believe me, I checked like five times to make sure I got it right hahaha
Lol. Well I’m glad you let me know, I’ll make sure to keep an eye out for it.
Are you hoping to keep things the same or try something a little different with the new blog?
Yep, the exact same concept! The only difference will be that this time the URL is spelled correctly hahaha
Sounds good.
