The internal motivations to write in a blog are much more important.<br /><br />I have a feeling that I will be having a two blog setup, haroldshawjr.com for my personal blog and then another for more focused blogging. But we will see.<br /><br />By the way thank you for subscribing. <br /><br />HaroldHarold Shaw Jr.http://www.blogger.com/profile/15199264917553613356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736566713582287503.post-59824490404209656092009-07-09T07:38:36.288-04:002009-07-09T07:38:36.288-04:00Harold. Thanks for the write-up. My summation is this: If YOU believe your blog is a success, then it is a success, bottom line. If you&#39;re learning and growing, becoming a better writer and dare I say a better person by getting your thoughts out, then what more can you ask for? <br /><br />Generating discussion is great, making a little money would be nice (currently I don&#39;t make anything with Life Without Pants), but in the end, the most important thing is the fulfillment it can provide for you personally.<br /><br />Keep doing what you do, and if your priorities change, if you&#39;re commitment to generating conversation grows, put yourself out there, make efforts to draw new people in. <br /><br />I just subscribed, so you&#39;ve got a new lifetime reader right here.
