BlogCatalog - The Place To Be!

After plugging away on my own since I started this blog, I discovered the blogger's site, BlogCatalog, this week. I wish I had joined them a year ago.

It's vibrant, the members are responsive, helpful and friendly, and quick to participate in discussions to which they can contribute positively. Now, instead of staring at my screen blankly, trying to figure out what to do or what choices to make, there's a forum of great people ready to participate, give advice and share experiences of the issue.

It is also a fantastic place to see a wealth of super blog sites and follow them. If you're a blogger and you haven't discovered BlogCatalog yet, I recommend that you get there now!

Mike I laughed out loud at your last reference to raising teenagers. My two daughters are now out of those years and actually it wasn't bad at all but your line was funny. I look forward to reading your thoughts and engaging in some discussions. Best to you

Thank you, Scott, and thanks for looking in. I'll see you on your site - it's very thought-provoking.

I'm glad you found BC as well. I found them about a month of making mine. I had actually had blogs in the past, but soon forgot about them because I was talking to myself. No interaction whatsoever.

This time though, I found BC and another who I won't mention, but wow. What a difference in motivation when you feel like you're not the only one reading your stuff.

Anyway, glad you found them. :)
