I've had to cut out a lot of them, and a lot that I'm still reading I just don't comment on.<br /><br />I have the same struggle as you in terms of watching how many people click through and worrying that no one cares what I'm saying, and then questioning why the hell I bother. I hope you know how much we all enjoy reading your stories!Melanie Hooyengahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08781235493983907234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174721864572618040.post-88760179934557551292010-07-16T13:25:28.158-05:002010-07-16T13:25:28.158-05:00Glad to see you BACK! :-)Glad to see you BACK! :-)Erica Orloffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16415925758466527671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174721864572618040.post-26913371974621050152010-07-16T08:12:40.906-05:002010-07-16T08:12:40.906-05:00You didn't blog for a while?

But we all run into dry spells, usually when life gets in the way.<br /><br />But periodically, I think we simply need to recharge -- to back off and let the write-o-meter refill at a leisurely rate.<br /><br />Don't fret about taking the occasional break.

Of course not! There's nothing there! <br /><br />And If I'm ever in dire need of something to make me laugh. Your twitter/facebook/blog pages are usually the first place I look. <br /><br />Also, I have a lot of people out there who inspire me to write. But If I were to think of one person as my writing mentor, it'd be you. <br /><br />So don't lose hope.

I've seen my comments drop as well but what I try to do is quid pro quo. Someone leaves me a comment and I do my best to leave them one. However if I keep going to a particular individual's site and they can't send one my way then I figure that's time better spent elsewhere. Make sense or not? I think that may have come across wrong/harsh but I don't intend it that way.David Cranmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04749857752139212888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174721864572618040.post-34602020956647338942010-07-15T18:21:31.341-05:002010-07-15T18:21:31.341-05:00I agree that the desire to blog ebbs and flows (I&...I agree that the desire to blog ebbs and flows (I'm just coming out of a very, very long ebb myself).

But now, some two years later, I realize that I have people who enjoy commenting and people who enjoy reading what I write on a M-W-F basis.<br /><br />I may not comment on everything, but I am a bonafide reader and lurker of your blog.<br /><br />And I enjoy every minute of it.G.

Never miss it. Often lately I have not taken time to comment, but I always read. Trying to get back to leaving comments, like today. Yours is one of my very favorite of all the blogs I read. I'm glad you're going to keep going and I look forward to more entertaining posts. <br /><br />Another side benefit of your blog is that I've met some of the most fun people through your site.

You have a charm and voice that comes through in just about everything you write. I know exactly how you feel though. I've been less active lately on my own blog, and I've felt real bad about it. I mean, I have a whole bunch of followers, but I haven't been doing them justice. I am in the process of trying to correct that, but it is definitely there in the back of my head. And like you, I enjoy the comments a great deal. Keep it up big dude, and know that us peeps are still out here anxiously awaiting your next one.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07823808700523297184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174721864572618040.post-82807440428149113122010-07-15T14:39:48.548-05:002010-07-15T14:39:48.548-05:00I always look forward to your posts!I always look forward to your posts!Debra She Who Seekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01845703092794695023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9174721864572618040.post-90356746413465004182010-07-15T14:36:54.277-05:002010-07-15T14:36:54.277-05:00well, my theory is that the more you write what yo...well, my theory is that the more you write what you love, the more you love to write, and I suspect that getting ready to wrap up the chronicles may be partially behind this new energy surge.
