LOSS OF TIME = LOSS OF REBLOGS

LOSS OF TIME = LOSS OF REBLOGS

I’ve had this gnawing thought in the back of my mind for a few weeks now. Sadly, even though it has slowed down quite a bit, Reblog Wednesday is still up there on a tab on my site. Right up above you in the header if you are reading this in its full form on your computer. The mobile view doesn’t show it – not on my phone anyway. You can also find it by clicking on the highlighted link in this paragraph.

It’s partly my fault, I’m sure. Yes, I’ve posted your reblogs when I’ve gotten notice and sometimes I’ve had to dig for those notices, but they are there. I feel most of my rebloggers  have gotten as busy as I have. I haven’t lost interest –  I’ve lost time. I haven’t had much time to post many originals of my own and with that comes not much time to read your original posts either. You all know you have to read to be able to reblog, don’t you? And most importantly you must read to be able to write!

My partial solution to this little problem is to reblog some of my personal favorites of my own essays that have drawn the most interest. I’ll be taking them out of the attic and dusting off the cobwebs. This should add a bit of time to my writing calendar so I won’t feel guilty about not working on my book(s).

Why don’t you do the same? Reblog some of your older posts and link back to me. I’ll put them up on your reblog page. Hey…a reblog is a reblog!

  3. I will link to you at my Weekly Roundup tomorrow Elle. I will promote your Wednesday REblog Day. Maybe that will help you kickstart it up again.

    • That would be great Janice. I’ll be away from my computer for a few days and Monday I’ve got plans – in my head of course- to get the ball rolling again! Smart phones are smart but sometimes I just need my laptop to take care of business! 😉 ~Elle

  4. yes, I have rather given up on all kinds of things lately – smile – but at the same time as I just got the email with your posts, I also got the email of Debbie’s post on the unregistered second children in China who are not allowed to be recognised. Thought you, and others, might like to read this, so have re-blogged it on “the spare”

    Stateless.
