I loved your poem it really made me smile. It was like that for me too for several months when I first started out. I think what changed it all for me was when I started commenting and introducing myself on other people's blogs. I would find one that I really liked and then looked at who was commenting on their blog. Then I would click on to their profiles and pretty soon people got to know me and my readership went up from 1 or 2 people a day to about 50 to 60. There are also many people who read my blog and don't choose to follow it, I only have about 30 followers. But I am really happy with the size of it right now. The bigger they get sometimes the more challenging it can become, trying to get back to everyone or getting negative comments. <br /><br />I am in the same boat again with a second blog that I started last month. Some of my loyal readers pop by once in awhile but it is growing very slowly. Just keep writing though and don't give up, it will grow with time! I really loved the inspiring video link you had about the wonderful girl that would not let the negativity of others defeat her. It was truly beautiful. Have a lovely day ahead Betty, it was sure nice to meet you!

It's a lot of hard work this blogging. Don't let anyone tell you differently and a lot of it involves the old adage: If you want to have a friend, be a friend. So give visiting some time. People will find you. They will!Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.com
