You're one of the winners from my just-concluded excerpt-fest on my blog Beyond Romance. (You commented on RG's excerpt).<br /><br />Second, since I'm here ;^) - I've found that blogging is a bit addictive. Writing is normally somewhat of a solitary occupation. Blogging is one way to connect with readers and other writers. Getting comments is a powerful motivation to continue writing my tales.Lisabet Saraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05162514190572269660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-723247154647243003.post-14281212706156914872011-04-19T21:36:59.558-04:002011-04-19T21:36:59.558-04:00With a blog you can also participate in writing tr...With a blog you can also participate in writing trends on twitter, like #flashfriday , where writers post a flash piece every friday on their blog and link to it in twitter. I think another is #samplesunday for excerpts of longer works. Posting on a schedule and reading and commenting on other writer's work helps with the whole networking and habit forming thing.Michelle Ristucciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12859642062078760861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-723247154647243003.post-68873975626634397832011-04-19T11:26:30.584-04:002011-04-19T11:26:30.584-04:00I know exactly where you're coming from! I'...I know exactly where you're coming from! I've been trying to get back into writing myself, but I put a lot of pressure on myself - If I write something for a novel, I want it to be really good. Or, I want to sit down and write for hours so I can get my focus and really have something to show at the end. Blogging takes all the pressure off, because I half expect noone to read mine, yet. It's been really nice to have feedback and see other peoples writing though! You've just inspired me to continue blogging =)Kumahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05339231327828873695noreply@blogger.com
