...First, giggling at the pun (because I love puns).<br /><br />Second, I like your approach to your blog. I was thinking about the same kind of scheduled approach. I do a Fiction Friday where I talk about writing stuff and a My Little Town Tuesday where I talk about what's going on in my life or town. I haven't thought about what else (like where to put my occasional rants), but I figured if people could know what to expect, based on what day they visit, that might at least move me in the right direction.<br /><br />So, I'm right there with you. Let's see how this works out.Jeanne Estridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13096521122802823385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5874057019281315576.post-21272372053680380172012-05-04T16:37:03.066-04:002012-05-04T16:37:03.066-04:00Hey Maria - you're very welcome.

If so, what did you expect to find?<br /><br />That's the question I asked myself when I started blogging. Truth was, I may have visited a couple of my favorite author's websites (not many, though), but I mostly went to see if they had anything new out. I didn't necessarily look to see if they had a blog, and if they did, I would have preferred it to be more friendly (personal) and maybe find out a few things about that author I didn't know about. <br /><br />Just something to think about, because I like your funny blog!Stacy McKitrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898731847653710759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5874057019281315576.post-6810790557942837562012-05-04T04:23:45.533-04:002012-05-04T04:23:45.533-04:00That's an interesting point.
