Starting a New Regime

Lately I have fallen into a habit of publishing twice a day.  And while I know this is not bad I need to change it.  As you may have noticed I have actually taken the step of signing up to the Blogs for Kindle and one of the things you have to state is the frequency of your blog.  Now I did think about hitting the multiple times per day button but then I thought about what that meant.  Would people expect dozens of posts per day?  Would they be put off at the thought of their kindle being swamped? So I opted for the daily option.  That does not mean the odd extra one might not slip in but it does mean I need to consider more sensibly my blogging schedule.  If you would like to see what my blog looks like on amazon please click the badge in the sidebar. If you would like to leave a review telling everyone how wonderful I am even better (well you can’t blame a girl for trying).  If anyone else out there that I follow has taken this option please let me know I will go post reviews on them.  I have to be honest I am not sure how effective it will be.  I tried looking through the category I entered for my blog and lets just say I gave up after a couple of dozen pages.  Maybe a few good reviews and likes will move it to a position where it can be found before the person looking clicks on something else but we will see.  I shall keep you posted as to whether anyone subscribes.

I have finally updated my blog rolls I also increased the number on show as there are so many of you out there with amazing blogs I love to visit.  I swear though I AM going to add any new blogs I follow AS SOON as I hit follow in future it was a nightmare and took far to long.  It was entirely my own fault for not being organised which make it worse as I cannot blame anyone else.

So do I have anything else for you this evening…well I do have the start of a poem in my head.  Should I proceed…oh go on then

Sunset silently slips

Beneath the gaze of moon

Slumber beckons the unwilling

As those who would rest cannot.

Standing, stalling, waiting

To find the refuge of dreams.

Seeking the solace of strangers

Connecting with life on the screen

Hiding from pain in a virtual world

Where tears pass by unseen.

  1. Good luck, Paula! I decided not to join the Kindle Blog thing – don’t want too much on my plate considering books to write and promote. I hope you do well, though. Can I leave a review of your blog even if I’m following you the “old fashion” way?

  2. Good for you, Paula. Nosey question, does this mean that if you’re blogging via kindle, you have the opportunity to make some money from it? Go you! 🙂

    1. in theory I would receive about between 10p and 30p for each subscriber via kindle not sure at this point how much point there is to it but will see. I am not sure how well some blogs will work on it as it does state video will not work on kindle and images are in b/w

  4. I know exactly what you mean by figuring out frequency. I opt to blog twice a week. Daily seemed too much for me, as I want to write fiction and publish. Now I’m in the process of figuring out marketing for blog and web site. I wish you good luck in your endeavors.
