Blogging is a great outlet for my creativity -- I can write blog posts when my kids are around me, in little stolen snippets of time, which I can't do with writing fiction.<br /><br />There have been times when I've been like, "What shall I blog about? I have nothing to blog about! I've run dry!" And then I'll ask myself, "What am I super in loveHamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-77194707581362760522015-02-05T17:16:34.677-05:002015-02-05T17:16:34.677-05:00Loved reading your blogging story!

You're truly an example to us all, madam!<br /><br />I especially like your advice regarding writing what interests you. It's easy as a writer to get stuck in a writers' block or malaise, but it really does carry over toRuby Danderfluffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02131273304691815890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-49656049358263272892015-02-04T20:06:25.160-05:002015-02-04T20:06:25.160-05:00You're welcome :-) And yeah, twelve years.

A writer who's writing I absolutely love. :)<br /> <br />Also, I SO agree with the black/dark backgrounds. It's nearly impossible to read the text and so I usually tend to just give up. I sure wish those bloggers would realize this. Ah well.

I don't think I will be able to do it, but thanks anyway. :) The tips you gave are excellent--and that Shakespeare picture only more so! :) I paraphrase that quote ALL THE TIME, and I have read <i>Hamlet</i> only once (I mean it <i>is</i> from <i>Hamlet</i> isn't it??? :)) Oh, and when it comes to GIFS: I totally agree, cute in Éowynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11740991607580029470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-17558436906598772102015-02-04T08:44:45.625-05:002015-02-04T08:44:45.625-05:00I read somewhere recently that most blogs sputter ...I read somewhere recently that most blogs sputter out after 4-6 months and never get picked up again, so... you've passed that phase!

But I've only been active in the blogging community for the last couple of years -- since early 2013, really. I participated in a couple of blog events and started discovering a whole lot of wonderful bloggers who are every bit as enthusiastic as I am about books and movies, and blogging has just gotten better Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-1995187999973844532015-02-03T17:26:39.359-05:002015-02-03T17:26:39.359-05:00I'm so glad you did it!:D

You have been blogging ...Thank you for tagging me!<br /><br />You have been blogging for a long time! Wow! Much longer than I! Everyone's blogging story is so intriguing! Fantastic blogging advice as well--I especially agree with the "no dark backgrounds and light text"-- I almost never give blogs with that makeup my time because it's too hard to focus on!<br /><br />~JamieJamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17203554335912426375noreply@blogger.com
