I posted my first piece on July 10, 2014, and voila! It only took me nearly three years to reach the 1,000 follower mark. Oh, and if you add in my follower numbers from Facebook (468), Tumblr (78), and Twitter (237), it’s still fairly dismal, especially considering that many of those are folks who follow me on more than one platform.
So why do I continue? I asked Studly Doright, my husband of forty plus years why he thought I continued writing in spite of my low followership. He said, “I dunno. Because you’re a masochist?”
So there you go! And if you’re a follower, thanks for being here! I love each and every one of you. Yes, even you.
Peace, people!
Congratulations though! It’s nothing to sniff at, I reckon! Here’s to many more followers! 🙂

Twitter puzzles me. I have found that on that platform it helps to follow a whole bunch of people. Many tend to follow back.

Totally why I blog, too. I was just giving myself some grief. My hubby thinks I’m wasting my time, while I’m having a blast. Even if no one read it, I’d still write.

Well I love following you and the hell with the numbers. Twitter? I personally don’t like Twitter but I have found the best way to get followers is to retweet certain things, other blogs, other tweets, specific ones, like say music, or nature or whatever, then you start coming up in the who to follow bit and you can get followers that way. My facebook author page not my ordinary one is the one I can’t be assed with xxx

My favorite part of twitter is trying to fit tweets into the 140 character limit. I’m so proud of myself when the last character hits the zero on the nose. I know I’m odd.
