Okay. I'm r-e-a-l-l-y frustrated. My website it set, not great but done. I really need your time on this one.

Anyway, I have one blog set up...

http://lynnmosher.wordpress.com

I love the picture and others have said they like it. However, it's too blah for my tastes. I'm working with someone who is trying to help me with another blog...

http://lynnmosher.blogspot.com

It's still in the oven trying to rise to completion! However, it is viewable. The pages need to link to the website, therefore, the look needs to be united.

My question is this...when you read a blog, what draws you in and woos you back? I understand that it needs to be unique and interesting. What makes you roam around it? Do you like that it has other things to click on and read, things of interest? I'm torn. P-l-e-a-s-e give me your input! I would deeply appreciate it! Bless you for helping.

What draws me in is interesting topics that are easy to read. Your "Stepping Out In Faith" blog topic immediately caught my attention. The other blog - not so much. The poem was nice, but I get bored reading blogs that say they don't know what to right. You need to catch the person's attention just like you do in your amazing articles.

Thanks, Tamera. I agree. I put that up because I haven't had a true direction how I wanted it to go. Just getting a feel for what the heck I'm doing. You don't know how much I appreciate what you've said. And thank you for your sweet comment. You said exactly what I needed to hear, er, read! Bless you!

Actually, Tamera, you have done more for me than you can imagine. I was just getting ready to send you a message. I am in the midst of changing the look of that second blog. Everything has changed. I really don't need the website any longer. I only needed it for an anchor so people could sign up for the devotions. The option for signup on the blog was only for the blog updates, not something outside the blog.

So, since I can now use the second blog (getting rid of the first one) for signups, I'm parking the website and changing the look of the second one, which will be totally different.

Your advice about the content opened the door and let the light in. I think I knew this but it was hidden in a back closet of my mind! I cannot tell you how grateful I am to you.

I've prayed so hard for this to be right and it was so frustrating getting here. It is now beginning to come together. Praise the Lord! And thank you from the bottom of my li'l pea-pickin' heart!
