Maybe it was a week or two of special guest posts? If so, unlike your Writers Worth Week, there wasn't any obvious reference to such a thing at the blog I mentioned.

Paula, I hadn't considered that one. I like guest posts if they're bringing a new perspective and fresh ideas. That's a lot of guest posts, though. I don't think I'd make the bulk of my blog guest posts. Wow.

Last week someone tweeted a link to a supposed writing guru's blog. I hadn't visited it in a while (the "guru" in question was such a sloppy writer I couldn't bear to read the blog on a regular basis), so I gave it a second chance.

The funny thing? The "guru" only wrote maybe one out of every 8 posts. They rest were all guest posts. That just smacked to me of someone desperately trying to inflate page views and lure followers from more successful bloggers. Bad form.

Sorry — Jenn. We have two Jenns now. 🙂 May I call you JAE or Chara to keep things from getting, well, confusing?

Chara, I love that. :) I still get excited when people comment. I hope you never lose that feeling!

You're welcome, Jenn. Thanks for the inspiration. :)

I'm fortunate that all of the blogs I read right now have active hosts who comment regularly. I love that. It's so much more a conversation than, as Cathy says, yet another preacher.
