Sorry everyone, I needed to take a few minutes and vent a few things about the book blogging community and blogging in general. Â As I was writing I realized some of it was just me being petty, but part of it is a larger issue that I just don’t want to be the one to raise.
You aren’t supposed to be able to read what I’ve written (except for the last two paragraphs) because I used the NaNoWriMo Word hint to hide what I wrote. Â I did this to 1) get this off my chest and allow me to step-over-it and 2) so that I didn’t offend or upset anyone.

There is one thing – I will ‘vent in public,’ if you will. Just keep in mind this is a personal opinion (and stems from my work with social media/technology in my professional life), so don’t everyone line up to take pot-shots at me. When you’re writing your blog, try and remember that REALLY long blogs are difficult to read. I know I’m guilty of doing this on occasion so I’m clearly the sinner casting the first stone. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I read at least 100 blog posts a day and honestly I lose interest quickly. Just a tip from experience if you find something really interesting and find yourself writing and writing and writing, try breaking it up into a series – or creating a page for a longer/in-depth look.
Thanks for letting me vent even if I couldn’t share all of it publicly – sometimes you just have to write something out to get some sort of closure.
