Just an editing note, the sixth bullet reads, "There are people whose have make it their goal in life to make other bloggers feel sad.." I think you were going for, "There are people WHO have MADE it their goal in life..." I’m looking forward to reading more of your blog.

I came across your blog and website because I'm a writer also and I googled your name b/c you wrote an article in Parents magazine that I admired. I wanted to read more about your writing and see if your website contained writing advice to beginning writers - what I found was so much more! Wow, love your blog, love your site, love what you are doing! I admire you and love your advice on staying true to your voice on your blog and in your writing. I write a blog also, and there are some days I wonder if anyone is reading b/c I don't receive many comments or I feel like giving up b/c it is so much work and the ROI is questionable....but I keep going b/c I love it. The timing of my finding your site is impeccable. Thanks for the advice! Stacy Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!

Wow. I love your idea of printing out the good e-mails I get about my blogging, and read those when I feel down. And yes, I do have a state of bliss as I've found my own voice. I forgot how much fun it is to write! What a wonderful post. Wow. I love your idea of printing out the good e-mails I get about my blogging, and read those when I feel down.

I love the part about being real and discussing intimate details. Our society is often so close and secretive, leading to a lot of loneliness. I also find the things I think people will care least about, they care most about! Just came across your blog and found this post inspiring.

Sometimes, I find it unbelievable that people who write so well could have started from zero reader except for their family. It is discouraging when you hear stories like how I got from 0-1million in 6 weeks or something! I've been blogging for nearly a year now, and I still haven't had the regular time to do it, nor the readership to show for it. But. I. Will. Get. There. Blessings and many, many thanks. .-= Trish Cardona´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.trishcardona.com/2010/05/seven-simple-sexy-stressbusting-strategies/" rel="nofollow">Seven Simple & Sexy Stressbusting Strategies</a> =-.

I usually am not afraid to speak my mind and, boy, do I walk on eggshells to word things just right and to be diplomatic. When I've clicked on submit and my work is on the site for the world to see, some regret sets in regarding content. I read it over and over before commiting it to the page, but it still feels like I've given TMI or betrayed a relationship once the writing has reached it's destination. You're insightful about writing giving your life a purpose. I write poetry too. It has made me feel worth something on my own. Every compliment helps me to realize that its a gift. The poetry has become an outlet for my emotions. If you were to read them, they would take you to the place I was in my life, emotionally, at the time of the writing. I am so grateful for that! Nava Atlas's blog, "Literary Ladies", is also a great place to receive advice about writing. The more input you can gather, the more rounded-out the learning.

I just started blogging as well and I find my new rule is 'if I hesitate before posting, it's going to be good.' It's so therapeutic to open up about things you were embarrassed about before, and helps people feel they're not alone. Thanks for being such an inspiration!! Thank you this is great!
