Readership...

So I'm starting to notice that the only readers of my blog are spambots who use my comments box as their personal advertising space. How about coughing up some dough for that ad, Spammy?

On a more serious note, I would like to get my writing "out there," so to speak, for the world to see and, perhaps, enjoy. It's not as if I need the validation of others to make my writing meaningful, but I think it could be fun to write regularly for a readership and engage in a dialogue with them through this format. It's intriguing to me, and a challenge to see if I can command the attention of a fickle audience over the internet.

I asked a colleague from high-school for advice on how she gets people to read her blog. She didn't give me any advice, but sent me a link to some website, written by someone else. A little cold, but I got the point. If someone doesn't want to give up their secret to "success," then I will have to learn for myself.

Here's to finding an engaging group of readers and writers!
