It's funny how I feel a connection to every follower. Even those who don't comment. Every time I press "publish" I do it with all of you in mind. Thanks.<br /><br />Suzanne,<br />OMG! I have a big smile on my face. Thank you so much. What a lovely thing to say. I feel like the little engine who could!!<br /><br />I planted radishes and lettuce and argula today and harvested enough rhubarb for two pies. Thanks again, Suzanne.

I like that....getting followers organically. A small percentage of people actually comment. I started tracking stats, and comments is only like 10-15 pct of page loads. That's just the way it is. Thanks for your kind words. <br /><br />Trav,<br />When you do post I always read it. Always. Maybe because you don't post every day. Maybe because you have a different approach and tone. Maybe just because I like you. Thanks for being here!<br /><br />Cat,<br />Thank you. See what I mean by words of wisdom? They're just pouring in. I agree about the connection vs. numbers game. Keeping it real. That's what I want.

I'm following it because I like how you write and you do not suck and your writing doesn't suck and you will get an agent and you will publish your work.<br /><br />Meanwhile, I like that you will plant lettuce, radishes and spinach.

A break is always acceptable and when you return, we will be waiting. <br /><br />As to followers, I love comments more than the number of people who subscribe to my blog. For me, blogging is about the connection, not the numbers. This attitude won't win the interest of agents or editors, but it keeps things real and focused.<br /><br />Enjoy your frogs~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858983085428585414.post-475244773785786932010-05-05T07:50:25.194-07:002010-05-05T07:50:25.194-07:00I seem to be stuck at around 40 followers.

But regardless, I've made a decision to see if I can get my followers organically...I mean, for now, without the bells and whistles of contests. In my mind, it takes nothing to click on a few buttons to become a follower...but how many of them actually read? I want the ones who follow because they like what they feel when they read me. Perhaps that's being stubborn...but so be it. Enjoy your gardening. I'll be reading you when you return.Lizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16170701034715108039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6858983085428585414.post-83958775265860465182010-05-05T06:20:14.263-07:002010-05-05T06:20:14.263-07:00Your post made me smile...
