New to Blogging, Yesterday's Kindling Review, Big Site Mistake
Published: Mon, 07/16/12
Feeling a little bit "punk" today as my dad used to say.
Just a wee bit lethargic and under the weather. Not bad, so
I'll work. Just not feeling overly energetic.
#1 - New to Blogging
Well I'm not new, as you all know, but in THIS kind of blogging
I am. I am following Geoff Shaw's advice about the Blogger
blogspot place for my fiction fanbase building and wow - it's
really different.
You can't just spill everything out onto your keyboard like I
do on my Tiffany Dow blog. You have to share enough to build an
intrigued fanbase, but not share too much that you spoil it for
them. Awkward!
I have NO clue if I'm hitting the right balance. IF you read
fiction authors' blogs, I would love to see what you like (so I
can learn) and I would love to get your feedback on my style of
blogging to reach that goal of building fans there who might be
interested in buying my novel when it comes out.

#2 - Yesterday's Kindling Review
I love it when product owners are paying attention to reviews and
making things better. With Geoff, I see many times in the training
where he'll say something about how his members asked him
something, so here's a lesson on that...that shows a caring
product owner whose heart is in the right place.
Yesterday my review had some blah moments in it when I felt like I
was repeating lessons. So here's Geoff's reply about that
review:
"Tiff - thanks for the comments re K2 - I will start
integrating what's there with the older training and push the
K2 focus completely to branding and promotion."
Love that he listens and cares. We need more of those kinds.
#3 - Big Site Mistake
This is a lesson in whether you're going to develop a following
- or NOT, period. Many of you are not. And I wish I could make you
wake up and see it. Some of you are doing a great job with this.
