So, if I do comment about commenting I'll end up writing reams. Mainly I post infrequently because I tend to surf very late in the evening, after work, and so I'm bushed. Also, I arrive late to most discussions, like here, and end up pretty much saying "what they said". :)<br /><br />My 'essential' blogs? I have my blog-roll on my own blog but there are a few others I haven't got round to adding there yet. Simply put, and this is subject to near continuous change at the moment, there's yours, Dee; Caitlyn's; Elle's; Rhiannon. Rambling; Saragirl's... um... Friedoline's, obviously, and Large Blooming Flower.<br /><br />Others I check as and when they update.<br /><br />Good to see a meaty discussion here too, I do enjoy reading these, even if I have nothing constructive to add. Basically, I'll be doing the virtual equivalent of nodding in interesting discussions as I find what other people say pretty darn fascinating.Joanna Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03765570687013090805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-46002174118126823862013-01-23T10:58:27.577-05:002013-01-23T10:58:27.577-05:00I've been lax in adding some of the more recen...I've been lax in adding some of the more recent blogs I've been watching .. perhaps I will take care of that this weekend when I think I'll have some time since it is supposed to be brutally cold and also snow stormy. <br /><br />The boots are the whole reason I saved it, figuring it set the stage for SOMETHING TG related. I knew they weren't hers in real life, but in a story, they definitely belonged to her.<br /><br />You are probably right about the whole "is this what I really am interested in?" realization, and almost as much of a thing as the "binging and purging" that afflicts many TG people. <br /><br />Glad that you visit even when I haven't updated, but as you mentioned, I'm probably an outlier for TG blogs when it comes to discussions, though your writing blog (and your caption blog to be honest) is definitely a close cousin of this site.Dee Mentiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07798903090538917010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-24075418499987275422013-01-23T10:51:29.705-05:002013-01-23T10:51:29.705-05:00Doesn't it feel nice to be recognized? :)Doesn't it feel nice to be recognized? :)Dee Mentiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07798903090538917010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-28580275927270314392013-01-23T10:36:55.000-05:002013-01-23T10:36:55.000-05:00I understood the whole "gestalt" of what...I understood the whole "gestalt" of what you were looking to convey, and since I was sort of "riffing" off of it, I wanted to make sure that people did see what you meant to say and all the comments based off of it, hence the link.<br /><br />The irony of people posting long comments on why they don't usually post comments isn't lost on me. My main reason for highlighting your post was that it seemed weird to me that I had to visit YOUR blog comments to see that others were reading MY BLOG! I know that many of your readers visit my blog and in the reverse too. I'm sure you'll find a few comments in my blog where I've mentioned you in the post and someone will say, "I really miss her work!" Hence a positive comment for YOUR work that happens to be in MY blog LOL Just something I felt the need to mention in the post.<br /><br />Dee Mentiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07798903090538917010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-16680381647863584432013-01-23T10:25:45.447-05:002013-01-23T10:25:45.447-05:00I need to pop into Rebecca's again more often....I need to pop into Rebecca's again more often.

I never thought I would be one to comment publicly or make captions either, but all the discussions and personalities roped me into commenting and I started making friends. From there, it was easier to get involved and from there, it completes the chain ... getting others to make the leap that I did.Dee Mentiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07798903090538917010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-88283578835450270062013-01-23T09:30:22.447-05:002013-01-23T09:30:22.447-05:00Commenting on a post about comments is... murky at...Commenting on a post about comments is... murky at best for me. I made a long post about commenting while back and that seemed to stir up a lot of activity. Most of my opions on the matter can be read there. I will say that I can understand the position of the 'lurker'. Those who enjoy the content without becoming involved in it. The fear of being 'found out' is strong, but I think the stronger fear may be the internal realization that you like this material enough to respond in more than an 'involuntary' way. All I'll say is that the next step... of commenting, of joining in the community, of admitting publicly (while still doing so anonymously) that you enjoy this material can make you feel SO much better. Sure, it's nice for us to hear your comments, but that isn't a one way street. YOU'LL feel better about it too!<br /><br />I'm not sure I could list out my 'essential' TG blogs. I currently list 30 blogs in my 'Blogs I Enjoy' list. Those are all blogs that I want to see their updates as soon as they happen. But to be honest, that's when I visit them. When they update. If they don't update for a long while, I'll generally wander over to see if something is going on. And I will stop by blogs where a conversation is going on (although I do often miss these conversations). About the only blog that I hit up even when it's not updated is here... your blog. Out of everyone I follow, your posts tend to generate the most conversations. Maybe not necessarily the most comments, but the most two, three, or four way conversations. <br /><br />As for the photo.... sadly I didn't anything out of it. I like the cap you made (especially roping in the boos which I didn't initially see), but no story idea came to me when I saw it. So what would have I written? Nothing.. I would have moved on to another image.<br />Caitlyn Maskedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732033913089350905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-63370852405368363222013-01-23T07:37:11.764-05:002013-01-23T07:37:11.764-05:00I'm feeling a little warm and fuzzy inside rig...I'm feeling a little warm and fuzzy inside right now.<br />A reply on my comment by Elle, than being quoted by other commentors and now you naming me on your blog. It even feels better than watching a Rachel McAdams movie;-)<br />It also gives me a better understanding why you, I and actually everybody needs positive feedback.<br />We all want to be appreciated in whatever we do, but most of all in the things were we put our muse at work. These are the things we do with our heart.<br />If someone breaks that down, it hurts, but you can ask why and try to understand the reason, even try to improve your work.<br />If you're very proud of a creation and people just ignore it, to me, it hurts even more. because the question remains: WHY....?<br />Like I said over at Britney's, we're not the best audience, you deserve better.<br />But you, all of you, you make us smile, motivate us, even inspire us. Sometimes help us climb a mountain. <br />Britney, the irony of a lengthy comment where we can't bring ourselves to a short one doesn't escape me either. But it is not logic. It's emotions flooding over, like a dam breaks. There's probably irony in the fact that you broke MY dam with your "dear God" caption;-)<br /><br />Now to your caption, Dee.<br />I've seen a lot of magical captions, but a spell like that is hilarious, up to being brilliant.<br />thanks for a great feeling,<br />Helena.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-74415519588737912702013-01-23T02:39:18.776-05:002013-01-23T02:39:18.776-05:00Dee,
I appreciate you linking my post... It'...Dee,<br /><br />I appreciate you linking my post... It's kind of funny, because the intent of my topic was NOT to bring up the neverending debate on whether or not Bloggers "should" want or need comments. Neither was it to discuss why it might be difficult for some people to leave comments. I've had those conversations before, publicly, and my views are pretty well established at this point :)<br /><br />The stated intent was to APOLOGIZE to other Bloggers because MY personal commentary has been lax on THEIR blogs. I'm trying to post new content, and I'm STILL re-vamping my old Blog, which has proven more tedious and time consuming than I initially realized, so I just wanted people like YOU to know that while I am "back", it will be a while until I am 100%, with the time to make comments, and I feel bad about it :) That's all...<br /><br />BTW.... I can't help but see the irony whenever this subject comes up on any of my Blogs, when people post 8-10 paragraphs explaining why they are too scared, too busy, or just can't be bothered to post the occasional "thank you"... I confess that their logic escapes me when their very actions contradict their words :)<br /><br />I do have several Blogs that I try to visit daily. I'm not going to list them, because I am friends with many Bloggers, many of my followers are Bloggers, and I don't want to accidentally offend someone by omission.<br /><br />/hugs<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08588438002210335131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-91557196540150064292013-01-23T01:35:55.909-05:002013-01-23T01:35:55.909-05:00I have to say Rebecca Molay's site and Martha&...I have to say Rebecca Molay's site and Martha's captions.
