Thank you so much! I can only imagine how insane it must be for two to keep up every comment that is posted on your blog. Don't become a slave to it! You could easily spend all-day just replying back to every comment you receive. <br /><br />Personally, I will keep coming back just to read what you girls have to say- not because you comment back. :) I feel compelled to comment because I find you both entertaining and fabulous! If you post a comment on my blog, that's sweet (and I am stoked!) but I would never want you to feel obligated to do so. :) Hope that makes sense...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-71929168410935546182010-02-19T09:25:24.359-05:002010-02-19T09:25:24.359-05:00I don'y give a crap, but I do feel all warm an...I don'y give a crap, but I do feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside when I hear from you guys.<br /><br />I think the REALLY funny, outstanding comments might warrant a response on the actual post.

Okay. YOu have far too many followers and commenters to responds to them all. You are now in the 'famous' category and no longer have to take care of us little guys all the time. you are awesome at it, though. seriously. i come to read what you write b/c it's funny. though i love the comments and the visits to my site, I also love what you write and would visit regardless. a visit on occasion is nice. when you can. i'd love it if it were one of your fav. sites and you came for a visit daily, but you just cannot do that will all of us...:-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00776958716300701782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-25379077542757056702010-02-18T21:25:03.032-05:002010-02-18T21:25:03.032-05:00I don't need a comment back to every single co...I don't need a comment back to every single comment I leave, but it's nice to get a comment every now and then. :] My own personal goal (which isn't always successful) is to leave at least 20comments a day. I also try to leave them on different blogs, but I've got my favorite ones. So my 20 usually bumps up a bit. I'm not sure it's successful, but it's what I aim for at the moment.<br /><br />The other thing is that I think it's more important to write good posts. That's what brought us here in the first place.

This means I'm realllllly picky about which blogs I add to my "follow" list.<br /><br />I don't comment on every blog I read, but I do make an effort to comment on the blogs of people who comment on mine, or if a blogger wrote an especially insightful/funny/relatable post or a review of a book I hadn't heard of. Sometimes I wish I had more time for witty/unique comments, but when I don't, the generically appreciative "thanks for this post!" just has to do. I figure, a small comment is better than no comment.<br /><br />On my blog, I reply to comments in the comment section on that post. Yes, the original commenter won't see it unless he/she returns to the post, but it's more for future readers -- that they see I'm reading, that my response maybe expands the conversation and keeps it going.<br /><br />I also visit the blogs of new followers at least once and try to comment on one of their posts and thank them for following my blog.<br /><br />All of us are fighting a lack of time, and our "real" writing comes first. Any effort is appreciated, so don't sweat it!Donna Gambalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00317767593205769881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328014776473730528.post-18860974993858283262010-02-18T16:59:45.114-05:002010-02-18T16:59:45.114-05:00It's really cool that you do spend the time to...It's really cool that you do spend the time to respond to all comments, but you ladies also have a lot of followers and get quite a number of comments! I think there's a point where you have to start being judicious about what blogs to read and how many/which comments to respond to because like you already noted, there's only so many hours in the day.<br /><br />It's awesome getting reply-comments, but I don't expect them and I don't think anyone can fault you for not commenting all the time.

Especially now as I prepare to query, I worry that I won't be able to keep up with my blog, even once a week. But I try to comment on those blogs belonging to friends or bloggies I've followed a while or communicate with regularly. I also try to comment on the personal blogs of those who leave comments on mine. IThen I comment on random blogs I'm following or ones that catch my eye. It's not the best system, but it works for me. <br /><br />For the record? I think you guys are doing a brilliant job, and you have a much bigger following than moi.
