I’m not sure I’d know how to not write. Not any more. My personal Pandora’s box has been opened into the matrix of sharing for better or worse. I’ll continue to plant these words, hoping they might grow.
I don’t know why it took so long to realize how important WordPress is to me. Or why it took so long for me to take it more seriously.
Thank you for reading. I don’t consider any of you followers. Certainly not My followers. Rather, my peers.
Let’s see what this will be in ten years.

To new writers- If you don’t do it, It won’t do it. Your blog won’t grow itself. Think of the Great Hank Aaron and play on.
Nice to know that. You are not my follower, you are my friend. 😊

Do you think it’s better to produce large quantity? Or better quality? In regards to growing your blog.

Damn. What a good question. In my opinion I think as long as you start with one true sentence (Hemingway) it doesn’t matter. But I wouldn’t do either to long too often. Flooding peers email accounts for attention is exactly that.

Oh, I know my Hemingway: he’s one of my favorite writers (learned a lot from his work). Great reference!👍
Thank you for your insight! I’ve been contemplating how much I should write. I’m new to blogging, and my purpose is to receive feedback on my writing, and interact with other writers. But I don’t want to turn people away from an overload of content.
So, the last couple days I’ve been trying to read the works of others.

Hemingway is important to me. For so many reasons. You may be new to blogging, but in my opinion your pace is on point and you’re doing an excellent job. Cheers!

Hahaha! Well, I write, yes. But I am a reader… I know good stuff. The stuff that blows you away, makes you put down the book or reader and sit and stare internally, having become a different person upon reading those words. THOSE are writers. I just pen thoughts and heart feelings.

You and me both my friend.
While i was away and not writing, i felt incomplete.
Writing makes me feel as a whole.
It’s surreal how us writers feel that way.
Keep it up my friend …
Happy blogging ❤️

who? myself lol.
I m 15. I started this blog because i wanted to improve my writing. Turns this is not the place but…I have to admit. My blog is a place where i can keep my writing. I really like it.

Exactly. I also write for myself (all but the story in my published tab) and if we wrote for ourselves who cares about likes. Ps- your blog is locked down. People can’t see your writing unless they’ve asked for permission and you’ve granted it. It’ll be difficult to grow if growing is important to you. Either way, I hope you keep writing. And if you haven’t, read The Outsiders. She wrote it when she was 14 or fifteen. It’s very good.

I don’t know how, but I know it is. It’s got to be some setting within your admin. It may even be a protective policy WordPress has. You’ve got plenty of time. And your writing is good and will only get better. But please- keep the creeps away.
