After finally catching up on replying to the comments left on my blog in the last couple of weeks, I read on Becky’s blog, Becky’s Book Reviews, that today is Blog Reader Appreciation Day! This day was started a year ago by Robin at the OTHER mother and is an opportunity for bloggers to thank and celebrate their readers.
Like Becky, I had just been thinking that it’s really not that hard (or that time-consuming) to reply to comments and I want to do it in a more timely manner (say, closer to within two days rather than two weeks). I would hate for any of you to think that I don’t appreciate (or worse, don’t read) your comments. I do, I do! And I also appreciate all of you who read my blog but don’t comment (although I encourage you to do so!).
Thank you so much for reading my blog!
Thanks for visiting my blog! And thanks for the link. :)
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Becky. The timing of your post (and of this day) was perfect!
ReplyDeleteI just signed up to follow your blog...I am a new blogger. I look forward to visiting your page every day. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog Avis. I always visit but admit I don't always leave comments.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Missy! I just visited your blog and have signed up to follow you as well. Happy reading to you too!
ReplyDeleteCindy, that's OK too. It's impossible to comment on every single post! I know I'm hopelessly behind on reading posts, nevermind commenting on them all!
i always try to pop by to say hi...and don't mind if you don't have time to respond to my comments. we only have so many hours in a day! :)
ReplyDeleteI catch up with your blog through Google Reader, but like to visit properly as well. I don't always comment but I read all your posts - and enjoy them!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea there was a Blog Reader Appreciation Day!
ReplyDeleteI do try to respond to comments within a day or two, but sometimes life gets in the way and it takes a bit longer :)
Thanks for the reminder to let our readers know that we're glad they visit!
Thanks for letting me off the hook, Natalie (booklineandsinker)! I realized this week that much as I'd like to reply to comments within 48 hours, it's just not that realistic with the schedule I have. I do get around to it eventually though!
ReplyDeleteMargaret (BooksPlease), thank you so much! I enjoy reading your blog as well!
Dawn, I guess it wasn't very publicized, at least not within the book blogging world!
