One of the best series I've read to date. There were a few things that I've already learned, the hard way, but there was a lot of points in this series that I will start putting into place immediately. I really enjoyed this series and am subscribing to your RSS feed because of it. Thanks again, Christine That was AWESOME. One of the best series I’ve read to date.

I hope you write more articles like this in the future. I've been blogging for a while now but still it's good to reaffirm the basics.

It's all a work in progress. Have you ever tried writing down your goals? It's said somewhere that the overwhelming majority of goals that are NOT written down are NEVER accomplished. So hey, write down your biggest goal (in detail), and then try and break it down into smaller goals that are more attainable. For instance if your goal is to get 100 readers to your feed, break that down into 50 readers, than 25, than 10 than 5. Then write out an action plan as to how you're going to get all those different levels. You can make it happen, just don't give up! (And read problogger.net, seriously - a lot of good tips from there) @Forest – You can’t get to the stars overnight! It’s all a work in progress. Have you ever tried writing down your goals?

It's hard looking at all these established blogs but with tips like this it makes it feel possible to reach these places. Writing is definitely the place where I am most confused but it is helping a lot to just read random blogs, big and small, old and new, and find the posts and thoughts that keep me interested. Then I can try and use these techniques and ideas to improve myself. Great finale.

Glad to know I wasn't. And I DO think I'm going to take Brown's suggestion. Maybe not this weekend though, this past week is the most effort I've put in my blog, BY A LOT. (YW for the mention BTW) @Brown - Thanks a lot for the suggestion again, I think I'm going to sit back with it and really go over the stuff I've written and see if I can't improve upon it. I can't wait to start the e-book though, that should be a really fun project. (#):) @Sassy - Thanks budddddd-y! I think this may have opened up my flood gates a bit so you may see some other series on here sometime. ::...is that right? "series" do i need to add some "esses" or something?...ah well...:: @Opal – I think I’ve seen that happen before, but I just thought that I was losing my mind! Glad to know I wasn’t.
