Would make an excellent guest post because it&#39;s so full of good advice without sounding overbearing or preachy as many others do. I fear that I fall short on nos. 1 and 8 and when I intend to remedy this when I get back to blogging after this hiatus.Penelope Jameshttp://twitter.com/Penelopemusesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5762975249392461528.post-2092728979358260302011-10-14T06:39:16.618-05:002011-10-14T06:39:16.618-05:00Excellent points Joy, and I agree with them.  And just may use this suggestion for a blog.  :D  (By the way, I happen to love your blog, I always come away feeling like I have gained as a person.) jonesbabienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5762975249392461528.post-57466103532787245102011-10-13T22:25:34.742-05:002011-10-13T22:25:34.742-05:00You need to publish this for all bloggers - bravo!  You&#39;ve not only captured what makes blogging great but also what makes your site great too.  Your a great thinker - thanks for sharing your talent! tvs takenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5762975249392461528.post-50597665838915412462011-10-13T21:32:55.086-05:002011-10-13T21:32:55.086-05:00Nice list, Joy.

I love this post and agree with your ideas. I only post once a week because I want to make sure I put out something that makes people want to stay and read my essays. Since my posts are essays and take a few minutes to read I want them to be easy on the eye too! I like well written and funny posts too, but like you, do enjoy some eye candy! Thanks for the great laugh!!Kathyhttp://www.mydishwasherspossessed.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5762975249392461528.post-63305528891067190022011-10-12T13:54:57.686-05:002011-10-12T13:54:57.686-05:00What a great post.  I have to go back and analyze my blog and see if I can make some changes because I agree with all your points on what is appealing in a blog!<br />Thank you so much for your visit and for your kind comment on my little mudroom.  I really appreciate it and am happy to meet you!<br />LisaLisanoreply@blogger.com
