i think you need to decide if you are writing to grow,, to entertain,, to bring praise,, to exude emotion… and then do what you feel..

i find it hard to publish chafe,, if i recognize it.. but i also know that i am no more than a quick stop on the road thru blogville,, and contact, comments,, praise,, are the way we converse,, nothing more.

in the end.. if i am not writing for me.. i do not have an audience……
