Opening doors to the creative mind
So I've Got These Blogs, See, and......
I often feel like a kid with a curbside lemonade stand, hoping that someone will stop by. But hope alone doesn't make cars pull over, or any passersby slow down. So I put up signs all over the neighborhood. And I wave wildly as cars zip past. And nothing.
I currently have three major blogs designed to attract new readers to my books: "A World Ago", (http://www.doriengrey.blogspot.com) consisting of letters written to my parents while I was in the Navy shortly after the South rejoined the Union; "Dorien Grey and Me" (http://www.doriengreyandme.blogspot.com), random bubbles from the La Brea Tar PIt which is my mind and, in an attempt to get prospective readers to feel they know me as an actual person, "Dorien Grey: a Life in Photos" (http://www.doreingreyphotolife.blogspot.com). I also have several ancillary blogs on Amazon and Authorsden and....
I wave my arms and jump up and down yelling "Hey! Here I am! Take a look! Try it, you'll like it!" And..... Each of my blogs has a respectable readership, and I am truly grateful to each and every person who takes a look at them. But I keep expecting that there has to be some way to increase the readership. (I keep seeing posts on various sites mentioning regularly having 13,952 hits pwer day or some such, and my mind boggles.)
So I am more than open for suggestion as to what I might do to bring in more readers. Hmmm....how about you?
