I'm a reader. Just an average, middle-of-the-road, target market, regular reader. I also try to write, but the following tips are from a reader's perspective.
As I tool around the blogosphere I look for interesting things to read. I know you all aren't writing for me. And that's fine. But if you are looking for your everyday, run-of-the-mill, overall blog surfer, then I write this for you.

ReplyDeleteThanks. For. Visiting. lol - Yes, blog writing takes some liberties, so I'm not an ogre about it, but I try to at least write so people aren't distracted by my style. I guess that's what I was getting at. Have a great day! Lyn
