That things have been moving very slowly these past oh...weeks I've been here at Blogger. So I'm temporarily leaving. I'm thinking I've had no business even starting a blog. For one, what's the use if I spend my time writing chapters of a story on my blog Novel when I have no comments, no reactions, no emails, no followers, no anything! It's as if I'm in a big fat pool where no one can see me, here me. I know I have really kind people who comment here and there, but, can someone ask for more once in a while?
This has been my most successful blog, and I have to thank my followers, my commentators (right word?), and whatever else. You guys are my motivation. But on my Astro-Knight Kingdom blog and my Novel blog, what motivation is there? Just...me? I dunno. All I know is that yes it may take a little while for people to start seeing my blog, but think hundreds of people have seen my blog...and people have said they've really enjoyed my blog...
I'm just wondering if I'm getting what I deserve, as in if I'm supposed to get more and if I'm supposed to have 'hollow' blogs. I know I have a little motivation thing on my gadget bar. But that was supposed to be more for those who would come to my blog. I want to inspire, create joy, cease pain, in all one sitting.
But I've learned...I can't expect. I can't assume. Nothing will happen if I just post good posts and believe that people will comment and such. Imagine, I've created a challenge and no answers have come back. Is it too much for people, or is it too boring?
I've been mulling the question over and over-is blogging right for me? I mean Claudia is a writer, and she gets followers, readers, and commentators since she's a blooming author, Uri gets followers and readers and commentators because his blog is about religious things and people like that. And on and on and on.
I have blogs...and people don't see my purposes. At first Astro-Knight Kingdom was going to be an imaginary city in space on and imaginary planet; but then I changed to to being a humorous blog with pics and commentaries. The Secret Wanderer is fully from core to skin on inspiring, and Novel is just for giving people something to read that they might enjoy and to comment on.
And yeah I know that blogs aren't just about comments, followers, and readers; but most of the time, it's as if I'm talking to a wall.
It's almost time for change, people. Get ready.

I know how you feel i hardly ever get people commenting on my blog and it kinda you know makes you feel like a loser lol. plus it doesn't help while i watch some people get 14 or more. you shouldn't stop writing though.
ReplyDeleteHey Zaniac! Write because you love to write, no matter who's reading or not. I know it can get discouraging, but keep at it. No one ever got anywhere by giving up.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement! Wasn't going to stop writing, was just going to slow down my posting and such!
ReplyDeleteBut I see that isn't possible with all these wonderful people here so I guess I might not!
Don't stop writing just because nobody comments. Remember, you're blogging because you love to write... Don't give up now. With patience, nothing is impossible =)
ReplyDeleteThank you Catmare!
