I could be online reading blogs and commenting 6 hours a day if I'm not careful. I can't imagine if I added twitter and facebook to that. <br /><br />KarenGKaren Jones Gowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01153821980625034810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966097532659996793.post-71203959541478612012010-02-24T22:32:20.559-05:002010-02-24T22:32:20.559-05:00Dreamstate -- I think you're making the right ...Dreamstate -- I think you're making the right decision, if that's what feels best for you.

I am curious, though, why you choose not to facebook or twitter. Time? Privacy?<br /><br />L.T. -- I get it.

Even wordpress seems more set apart, and I like the interaction and sense of community I feel from following and commenting on blogs, and vice versa. I don't want an "official author website" that just sits there looking pretty for the fans. Well, besides, I have no fans lol.Karen Jones Gowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01153821980625034810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966097532659996793.post-35921539566243802612010-02-24T12:53:29.657-05:002010-02-24T12:53:29.657-05:00I suppose I have a small webpresence.

Good question. I think about these kin...Dominique,<br /><br />Good question. I think about these kinds of things often. I refuse to Twitter, or join facebook. I'm published but still have no website. I've got a blog on Vox, which was my first step into getting that online presence. Vox had limitations so I set up another one on blogspot. This is the one I spend the most time on. I still write the occasional (time-wasting lol) post on Vox, but I see my blogspot blog as my real online author presence. Such as it is.<br /><br />I like to follow writing blogs, because sometimes I just feel like reading about it, not writing about it.Karen Jones Gowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01153821980625034810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966097532659996793.post-8589882533553201272010-02-24T10:10:12.390-05:002010-02-24T10:10:12.390-05:00I love my blog and for right now that is MORE THAN...I love my blog and for right now that is MORE THAN ENOUGH for me. I don't plan on twitting or facebooking or any of that. I think my plan is to keep right on blogging until I get the agent and then if I do get published put up a website. I think that's enough for now. Everything else, and some days blogging, takes away from the writing.Anne Gallagherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05816355522284492131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966097532659996793.post-77989021027405690442010-02-24T08:25:16.121-05:002010-02-24T08:25:16.121-05:00This is keeping me up at night!

I'm about to lauch a very basic website and I think that will be it for now, other than an occasional blog post. I'm done putting pressure on myself!Jenna Wallacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07591399291903261245noreply@blogger.com
