Blog Search Engine

Here’s a cool toy. A blog search engine. Just put in some keywords and see what you come up with. If you add quotes around the search term it will narrow it down even more.
Search for your name
Your book title
Your blog name
I did an interesting search on “gh scores” and “golden heart scores” and “Rita Scores”

Have fun!

Another Proposal out the door

Okay, I finished up another proposal to mail off tomorrow. I’m such a nutcase. I get them almost ready, then I just let them sit while I avoid writing the synopsis. I mean you have to THINK to write the synopsis. It makes my brain hurt. :wallbash: Am I showing the GMC? Can you see the emotional arc? Too much subplot. DAMN, I forgot to add the romance :lips: Etc, etc. I can’t get “into the flow” writing a synopsis like I can with writing the actual pages of the manuscript. But this month I’ve been tough on myself and forced myself to write up the synopsis and polish the chapters again and mail out more stuff. ™

Either that or I’m scared to make a decision on what new story I want to start…so I’m doing some classic avoidance maneuvers. Whatever, I’m on to new stuff this week. Though I have a busy week at the pesky day job this week too. We’ll see how much progress I can make.

Open Your Blog to Comments

Okay, I don’t get it. Why do people blog everyday and not open their blog up to comments from their readers?? :wtf: Okay, I understand some blogs are really more content managers where people are posting news or whatever. I’m good with that.

But what about the blog where people pour their heart out, discuss their lives, their jobs, their thoughts. They just want to go on and on and hear themselves talk?? Blogs are about interaction. Discussion. I just don’t get the “closed to comments” blogs. Yes spam is something you have to deal with on a blog :mad2: , but closing your blog to discussion?? Why bother? And why would I keep coming back to your blog just to hear you go on and on?

Okay, we bring you back to your regular non ranting blogging….open to comments, of course :mrgreen:
