So, I brought it over from the other site. Here is what she said" "I like blogging but treat it as my hobby/plaything/time-waster. I really do it to release the random thoughts coursing through my brain. And though I'm happy that I've got a little network, the only person I truly care reads it is my hubby. BUT I DO want people to read my book, Destiny By Design, which comes out May 18th from Ellora's Cave *shameless plug* ;)" Everyone, go buy the book! Wylie, I didn’t mind you leaving a shameless plug!

BUT I DO want people to read my book, Destiny By Design, which comes out May 18th from Ellora’s Cave *shameless plug* ;) ”

Everyone, go buy the book!

Sorry!! Left my comment (and shameless plug) at the wrong place. Paying attention isn't a strong suit, anymore than prioritizing is :) Like what you've done with the new place! Ooops! Sorry!!

I understand your fear of audiences, even though I don't share it. The only times I have ever had any fear were when other storytellers were my main audience. Comments are good. Now, I have to figure out how to change my name from "Admin." This wordpress is not very easy, and I'm a long way from feeling at home. I appreciate your comment! You knew I would.

Great new digs -- congrats on your blog move! Gotta change your URL in my blogroll, LOL. I'm impressed that you can perform in front of large audiences. I used to play classical piano in recital and I was always fine in front of audiences for that, but when it comes to my voice, forget it. Public speaking or *horrors* singing for an audience still shivers my timbers from my head to my feet. In real life, I'm very shy, but on the internet I'm more gregarious. Go figure. Perhaps it's because I'm more comfortable writing than I am speaking. Perhaps it's the leisure writing affords to get my words together so they'll come out right. No worry about tongled tangs -- oops, I mean tangled tongues. ;) And because I'm shy, I'm not wild about being in the spotlight, any spotlight, but I love comments on my blog. Comments make me smile. Comments are more like a leisurely conversation than a spotlight, and comments make me feel good because they tell me someone has read what I've written and have felt strongly enough about it to say something. And that's one of the biggest reasons writers write -- to move people, to touch people. Thanks for an excellent, thought-provoking post! :) Hi, Shelly! Great new digs — congrats on your blog move!

Leanne did it for me. You don't have to comment on the Blogger site! But, thanks for commenting here, silly. I can't wait to see what the site looks like either. I'm still trying to formulate what I want it to be. Probably still simple, but easier to navigate. Thanks for stopping by! I’m not the one who got my articles over here!! Leanne did it for me.

I love the comments and the attention...always have, always will. And look at you! You got all your posts over here and didn't lose a thing! Way to go! I can't wait to see what your site looks like in a couple of weeks. Now, should I go comment on the Blogger site too? I know how much you love your comments. ciao bella~ CeeCi More than once I’ve done my best to convince myself that I’m writing for me, but heck, who do I think I’m kidding?

And, I like my Big Bubba's stories, too. I'd like to get him to "guest blog" for me, but he doesn't have a lot of time.<BR/>Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
