I also print out my posts and keep them as a sort of journal of my thoughts. Generally, I don't bother to say anything on Facebook at all.<br /><br />These days, I don't read many blogs at all. When I check my blog feed, I feel like I am just seeing the same thing over and over as people all promote the same books and authors. There is certainly a place for that in blogs, but I miss the way blogs used to be. Through blogs, I met some of my favorite writer people and felt like I got to know them a little. So when I finally met them in person, it was like running into an old friend.Stephanie Humphreyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13553998075443712084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9021334748633952462.post-10151159091939425922014-01-23T15:53:57.976-08:002014-01-23T15:53:57.976-08:00Oh, and I should say it's the blogs where I fe...Oh, and I should say it's the blogs where I feel people are sharing real parts of themselves that I read. Others, not so much.Michelle D.

In fact, I feel like it doesn't have much to do with my writing career at all. It's my little corner, my outlet, my place where things are kept in a more permanent place ... and better perspective. Those other places are so fleeting, and I'm sorry to say, for the most part, shallow. I feel blogging is the last place where we actually share more of ourselves than fleeting thoughts, pictures, etc. And that's why I'll continue to read them and write on my own. I would never feel like printing out my FB statuses and binding them in a book to remember my journey later on. My blog posts ... those I want to keep.Michelle D.
