		<description>It is wonderful to get to know you better, Barbara. I loved what you had to share about the place for profanity. I&#039;m looking forward to spending more time exploring your blog too. (Can we add a few more hours to each day?)

I love your mission. It&#039;s a great idea. I&#039;ve taken to giving random blog reviews from time to time here and have discovered some wonderful bloggers and friends. I think community is one of the most important roles blogs have. The ability to connect with like minds around the world is amazing and truly enriching.

Thank you for sharing your friendship with me. I&#039;m looking forward to &#039;seeing&#039; more of you and reading more of your blog.</description>

		<description>Hello Rebecca,

It&#039;s a small world.

Earlier today, I was going through the comments on Problogger&#039;s site.  I was in search of a new blogger (less than 3-4 months old) to showcase as my &quot;new blog of the week:...a mission I&#039;m on to help new bloggers &quot;get found&quot;.

Anyway, I clicked on your name, and came to your site.  I knew you had blogging down, but was intrigued by what I say.  You write so beautifully, I knew I would have to come back.

Then, within an hour or so, you left a comment on my blog (the one about profanity in blogs).

I believe I have found another great cyberspace &quot;friend&quot;. :)

I&#039;ll be back again soon!</description>

		<description>Thank you, Grandy, and I&#039;m truly honored by the award. :-) I&#039;ll be blogging it very soon I hope. Probably Saturday. I&#039;m glad you enjoyed these tips.</description>

		<description>Hi Rebecca!  As always, great tips!  I hope you don&#039;t mind, but I&#039;ve given you an award over at my site.  You may have it already but I haven&#039;t seen where.  It was given to me by the lovely Michele, and I had to share.

Thanks for all your wisdom!!

		<description>Just because it is &#039;best&#039; to find a niche, doesn&#039;t mean you HAVE to, Laski. If your readers are enjoying the mixture and you&#039;re enjoying writing with a broad focus you can continue. If you&#039;d like your blog to have greater success than a niche may be the way to go. Don&#039;t forget, just because your blog has a niche, doesn&#039;t mean you can&#039;t have other blogs with other niche&#039;s. ;-)

Writing Blog - Parenting Blog - Politics Blog - Humor Blog - Reviews Blog. Give each it&#039;s own one, two, or three day posting schedule and you can have lots of fun writing for them all and more readers because they&#039;re after that specific topic but aren&#039;t interested in the rest.

Anyway, full of ideas. It&#039;s that waterfall. Thanks for stopping by and it is wonderful to know others feel the same way about writing.</description>

		<description>Great suggestions! You definitely captured why many of us write. I completely understand about finding a niche. I&#039;m definitely still finding mine--writing, being a mom, politics, humor, reviews . . . I just can&#039;t seem to settle.</description>

		<description>Thanks, Michele!

I&#039;m glad I&#039;m not the only one who is cautious about seeming like a mosquito to fellow bloggers. I might hope others are as eager as I am to take up a meme challenge, it&#039;s certainly a great way to have an idea for our next blog post. ;-) If you think about it, meme tagging is a great way to build community all around. I&#039;ll definitely make sure to tag next time. :-)</description>

		<description>You&#039;re most welcome, Rebecca. You deserve all the compliments you can get!

As for calling on you for help: I may have to. ;-) I sooooooo appreciate your offer. You&#039;re too kind!

And... don&#039;t worry about the tagging. I&#039;ve stopped tagging for every meme and only call out specific people sometimes now. I know what you mean. There are always others I think of, but I&#039;m afraid they wouldn&#039;t appreciate the tag. I thought you&#039;d be ok with this one since you could share some of your awesome blogging tips. ;-)

Thanks again for participating!

Smiles,
Michele</description>

		<description>Thanks, Michele! I&#039;m glad you enjoyed the post.

I know the transition can be challenging, especially without technological experience but you really will appreciate WordPress. Don&#039;t forget you can call on me if you need help.

You&#039;re very welcome for the link love. It would be great to see others join the meme fun. I know I should have specifically tagged someone but I&#039;m always worried I&#039;ll put someone out by challenging them. *blushes* I know, I must remember the rule: &quot;Ask, you&#039;ll be surprised who says yes.&quot;</description>
