For the past three weeks I've been tryin' a little experiment. I wanted to see if daily blogging about my real-life wacky house, critters, and obsessions would increase my website traffic or if I was just another voice shouting amongst all of the millions of tiny voices in cyberspace.
And the answer is: A....blogging has definitely doubled my daily website visitation average. Even my doubting-Thomas hubs has been impressed. "I don't have a hundred and sixty people wanting to read anything I've written," he told me.
However, the time I've spent blogging has been time I haven't put into my paying work or my fiction writing.
Oh, sure, it's been tremendous fun. But fun doesn't pay the bills or get novels written.
So, if you've enjoyed my silly, wacky, or off-color posts, keep checking back periodically. I'll keep blogging, just not every day. I'll post links to Facebook and Twitter when I have something new up.
Thank you again for your readership and visitation! I hope to one day be in a position where I can wear fewer proverbial hats and not only write more fiction, but also write more daily columns, i.e., blogs.
