The worse is when you write a post and no one comments. Ugh. Oh, well. You have a great blog, and I love coming by, so keep at it.<br /><br />I get in reading slumps when I'm into something else, right now, knitting.Robyn Rylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07510195754917893035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2015861203212804796.post-63482079382117272082011-04-26T02:21:42.042+08:002011-04-26T02:21:42.042+08:00On the reading end of things, I totally agree with...On the reading end of things, I totally agree with LBC. That's pretty much it in a nutshell. BUT...<br /><br />on the writing end of things...oh my. I've sort of concluded it's because of Spring fever: too nice, too much to do, too nice...did I already say that? hhmmm... <br /><br />Thanks for writing about THE nay-sayer, though...for the past week I thought I was the only one plagued by it.

It then becomes a chore and not a pleasure. <br /><br />On the blogging front, I write what I feel interested in. Mainly genealogy or books and some general ramblings. I hope people enjoy it, but I do not go out of my way to make it interesting. A blog is a creative way of expressing me.Julie Goucherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11368170005503879489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2015861203212804796.post-37881560077234179262011-04-25T07:23:28.280+08:002011-04-25T07:23:28.280+08:00I've gotten better about not fixating TOO much...I've gotten better about not fixating TOO much over my subscriber/follower numbers, but sometimes, when I notice a drop, I still wonder "What did I do wrong?"Florindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09789402061034734894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2015861203212804796.post-5900083605992273942011-04-25T05:27:27.845+08:002011-04-25T05:27:27.845+08:00I see you are already up to 100 again:)

I also go to things I know I can read quickly and enjoy (like graphic novels, or dystopian YA). That usually get me back in the reading groove.<br /><br />Check out my Here is my <a href="http://hawthornescarlet.blogspot.com/2011/04/sunday-salon-3-graphic-memoirs.html" rel="nofollow">Sunday Salon post</a> here.LBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08565867574821169945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2015861203212804796.post-82047032905405913952011-04-25T03:52:10.338+08:002011-04-25T03:52:10.338+08:00I'm a blogging slump so I completely understan...I'm a blogging slump so I completely understand. I just have been really busy with work and it's been difficult to get back into it.<br /><br />Sorry about the un-follow. I haven't had that yet, but I only have about 10 followers. I doubt it has anything to do with your content. I enjoy reading your posts. Hopefully you can conquer the nay-sayer. I struggle with that as well. Good luck with everything...especially the thesis.Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07343557750428307066noreply@blogger.com
