I write a funny story once a month on my blog. I’m hoping that when I get my funny female private investigator novel published I will already have a following.

Thanks for all the practical tips, Kristen. Makes me feel better about blogging on haircuts, traveling, and bad days. I do still blog about my writing life, but I try to emphasize the LIFE part. I should probably read your books…

I liked the comment one of your readers posted about starting slow. I’ve read articles about how you need to post every day. That will never happen for me. I hope that doesn’t doom my blog.

THANK YOU! I recently signed up on a book blogging site as I had read a few posts a friend sent me…hey, they were interesting. I signed up for their Network Your Blog group and, oh, mama, I’m about to the point where I automatically delete those messages. No, I don’t want to swap subscriptions to everybody’s blog just to pump my numbers up. I will subscribe to blogs that provide interesting material that I want to read about which is a mix of book reviews as well as “how to write” tips. As for my blog, I want subscribers who genuinely want to read what I have to say. And, yeah, I’m one of those who does write “writing” posts…mostly about the Word Confusions I discover as I read and review other peoples’ books. Mostly I simply post reviews about books I’ve read. Along with information I want to know about a book such as where it falls “chronologically” within a series and a summary of some of the characters.
