I will stop by your blog to see who you are a little later. I guess I was curious myself, it was late, it was at night time, I said what the hey... Meleah Rebeccah I won't change being all over the place, but I understand being clear about things...if this is a personal blog or not...it's personal to ME, but not too much about my personal life. I have to work that line in somewhere, I laugh every time! xoxo Cameron, I like to get people talking and if I twittered along my personal life, you might be able to hear the crickets through your computer speakers, lol. Follow me everyday? I'm not that interesting. The people that visit here are great Cameron. I do write for myself and sometimes I write with other people in mind who might be reading...this is me though. I wonder what kind of instrument you play...hmmm...off to go see Tondy, Tondy, Tondy! I've missed you! Been worried and thinking about you. The review didn't criticize my writing and truth is, I did go to them, they just didn't pull a blog out of thin air and rip it up. Some points were valid, I made a few tweaks and the rest is sunshine and lollipops. I respect those close to me who do not want to be mentioned here...and I don't want to end up floating in the Hudson River. Tondy girl, there is only one other person who can make me grin from ear to ear like that...but you just did. For the days when I feel like a loser and less than, I'll have to go back and read your comment. Thank you. XO Jillian, I understand what was meant by focus...here, you don't know which angle I'm going to come from and that's me. I like to blog about everything and then I like to know how other people feel...I do lack focus, I have a money blog and a weight loss blog and haven't posted to them in days. I can't focus on just those things day after day after day after zzzzzzzzzzzz oh! day after day, I fell asleep. lol. I said when the review came up, that I would put it up...it wasn't "easy", and I used what criticism I could...no biggie. They would love your blog, it's the funniest humor blog I have ever read, post after post you deliver...don't know how you do it. <em>Natural's last blog post..<a href='http://valeriemorrison.net/blog/more-of-the-ugly/'>More of the Ugly</a></em> Stephanerd, thanks for stopping by, always nice to see a new face.

I don't see what the whole "focus" thing is about. Your blog is you: full of variety. Anyways, all I know is: I enjoy dropping by here and reading what you write. Keep it up. Also, I want to commend you (for what it's worth) on opening yourself up to that kind of criticism. I never have because I'm afraid that people will say my site is crap... but anyway, good for you for being brave! I'm certainly not! <em>Jillian's last blog post..<a href='http://www.jillianapproved.com/2008/05/holy-matrimony/'>Holy Matrimony</a></em> Yeah… I don’t see what the whole “focus” thing is about.

The review kind of got me to comment for the first time since March, Hallelujah! Firstly, I love your blog and that's the honest truth; it's a breath of fresh air. I remember the first time I found it, I went and made some popcorn and read all your posts, and I wanted more. You were brave to get the review, secretly I wonder what they would say about my blog but I don't think I'll be asking for a review anytime soon. I read all their comments, some were a little harsh, but you took it all so well which only proved to the rest of the world that there are still a few good people out there. I have to admit, I did go to the ladies blog that said she'd never visit your site again, and I hate to say this in public, but her blog wasn't my cup of tea, which only proves "different strokes for different folks". Yes to what Cameron said, we tend to be victims of writing more about what our readers like to read when we really ought to be more true to ourselves (we're human). Too much personal stuff gets you into trouble - speaking from experience although I'd still like to know more about you. When you do write something personal you combine it with a little bit of humor, so I've noticed. Anyways I could ramble on....Really how do you give a brilliant writer advice? It's all in the content, besides I like the way your blog looks, and if you really knew me, I'm not one to compliment. I like your work just the way it is and one day, when I grow up, I wish to be half the person you are, well in terms of writing, okay - you're a nice person too, there I said it. <em>tondy's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/tondie/~3/259426835/in-cold-i-lay.html'>In the Cold I lay!</a></em> I’ve been absent, yes, and I won’t go into detail about that.

The above may sound like a contradiction. I do write my blog mainly for myself, but also try to keep aware of what people respond to best. It seems that your blog attracts a lot of good readers -- AND writers. P.S. The above may sound like a contradiction.

Some like the really personal stuff. Others don't. I like to read personal things if the writer doesn't WHINE or MOAN. I don't really write personal stuff in my particular blog because my readers seem to enjoy reading about the Woods. I'm a professional musician and sometimes write about my musical activities. Consistently, I receive far less comments than when I post pictures, videos and descriptions of the Woods. I guess what I'm trying to say is that you should write your blog for YOU first. People either like you or they don't, just like in "real life". <em>Cameron's last blog post..<a href='http://cameron5408.wordpress.com/2008/05/02/a-walk-through-the-woods/'>A Walk Through The Woods</a></em> There are as many types of blog readers as there are blog writers.
