I have no interest (at this time) of changing the things that hold me back from a "successful" blog.
Here's why I think my blog blows:
- I'm at a technological disadvantage. I don't have the latest anything, including updates about the latest anything. Seriously. To capture digital pictures, I either borrow my sister's or use my flip phone.
- I don't use images. Too much effort is required for me to incorporate them. (See above.)
- I get wordy. I'm a wordsmith; I could help it if I wanted to, but I don't so I won't.
- People don't hit me up. I follow at least twice the amount of bloggers who follow me (publicly). I also track my page views and have learned few people follow the links my few friends/followers are gracious enough to share. People also aren't attracted to my blog by comments I make elsewhere.
- I'm inconsistent. I don't just mean in terms of the frequency of my posting, either. I don't have a theme or really even a style. Sometimes I'm silly and sometimes I'm serious. My blogging tongue has wagged, been tripped over, been bitten (by myself), been put in my cheek, and stuck out at the world.
- I don't use labels. I don't like them in life, and I don't like them on my blog.

I think a lot of people feel the way you do about blogs, I know I do sometimes! I like your posts, whether they be funny or serious. But I'm TERRIBLE at commenting. I do read it though, so post whenever you want!
