Taking those first steps, however, is much more difficult than deciding you need to. I'm only just beginning to figure out Twitter and how it works. Your comment about Follow Fridays cleared up my confusion about all the "Thanks for the #FF love" to a bunch of people posts that I see. Excellent advice. Very helpful. By the way, I found this post via Twitter ;-) Thanks again!<br />~JulesJuleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10985610569396121184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434726458328084701.post-55016886336332927602010-11-15T20:33:22.331-05:002010-11-15T20:33:22.331-05:00Wow!

I've only just begun my blogging journey, and I have to say that there are days (like this very one) that I say to my husband, "I don't know if I should keep doing this for only "x" number of people to read." But then I go out into my community and I run into people who've said that they can totally relate to a post, or a friend's 6-year-old daughter reports to me that her mommy tried the muffins and LOVED them. <br />These are the things that I need to hold on to. <br />Thank you for the reminder.Kim Beauchamphttp://eathappyblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434726458328084701.post-49087926513014632652010-11-10T22:12:43.295-05:002010-11-10T22:12:43.295-05:00What kind of people don't want to see my cute ...What kind of people don't want to see my cute kids eating octopus? lol... kidding...<br /><br />Great post Kim!

It is so easy to get lost in the jungle of blogging and every bit of advice on how to find your path is invaluable. <br />My blog is small, but I have at least several loyal readers:) It makes me smile when people write that I inspired them or touched them with my stories.<br />I enjoyed you blog since the crazy years of its infancy, but never left a comment (such a coward!)

I keep stratching my head over how to focus on one thing when I blog though--just can't seem to do it. The world of creating recipes and talking about food fascinates me, but I'm also interested in cookbooks and the cookbook publishing business because I've been involved in it for so long. I'm sure you're right these topics aren't of interest the same tribe, but I don't think I can give up posting on either one--so I guess I'll keep putting up the billboards in the desert.Nancy Baggetthttp://www.kitchenlane.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6434726458328084701.post-54627356807170977812010-11-05T13:05:37.191-04:002010-11-05T13:05:37.191-04:00You may have spoken of other bloggers as if they w...You may have spoken of other bloggers as if they were Jesus Christ but you are the Moses of all the bloggers in the desert and your post has provided much manna for them to chew on.<br /><br />Outstanding post!
