Recently, and maybe not so recently, I have noticed people that I Follow are showing up as no longer being Followed. I wanted people to know that if you see me suddenly Following you again it wasn’t that I stopped Following you before. And I hope I am not missing people, with my problems I Follow people for a reason. This greatly upsets me.
Much Respect

This is a message to my Friends that support me here in WordPress and also happen to be on Twitter.
I want to ReTweet you!
Please HELP me by letting me know if you have a Twitter account so I can ADD YOU to my NEW WORDPRESS LIST there. I want to make sure that I first and foremost RT (Thats ReTweet for all of us Twidiots as I call people like me.) all of your blog Tweets and anything I think is cool that I can share with people and secondly I want to focus knowing my Friends. Yes if you are Following my Blog I consider you a Friend. You’re not a Follower. You’re a Friend. And I like to support and help my Friends. Click here to learn about Twitter Lists. (Think Friend List.)
Maybe this sounds like some odd thing to you, but I’m serious. You can ask others on my list. I don’t ask anything of you, I just like to help. It makes me feel good about myself at times. I know that’s a selfish reason but it helps me.
I know, some of you follow me on Twitter already and I RT you already, but I am trying to go through my list of people and I’m finding it difficult at times discovering who is what and where.
AND DO NOT THANK ME FOR AN RT! Otherwise you will be doing that a lot most likely. We support each other in the community and it’s something I WANT TO DO!
This will also possibly help other WordPress members follow each other as well.
Just reply to this Post or if you are already Following me in Twitter you can shoot me a Direct Message (DM).
Much Respect (I so wanted to say ‘and Tweet you Later, but I refrained.)

Everyone stop by Ways of Life and give a congrats and help her on her way to the next 100, 500, 1000. Wait a minute. She’s going to have more than me. Never mind. Stay right here and ignore this. Hrmph.
About two month ago, I decided to start a blog. I wasn’t even sure how to write/ post an article at first. I had almost no hopes that anyone would be stopping by my blog. But that was then and now this happened!
This is such a humbling experience. Along the way I had the opportunity to interact with some truly talented people. There are so many wise, humorous and brilliant people on the blogosphere and I get to learn so much from them everyday.
This is the incentive to get me working even more hard on my blog. All my followers and fellow bloggers are extremely dear to me and so are their opinions. I want to get as much input from my followers as to what kind of content they expect and/or want me to work more on as possible. Every suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you again…

3 Writing Tips: To Know When to Stop Writing…for the day…and how.
by: Ronovan
When the laptop falls off your sleeping body or maybe when your ‘other’ smashes it with a hammer? Sorry but I just can’t help but think of Yzma in The Emperor’s New Groove every time I say ‘smash it with a hammer’, Eartha Kitt had an awesome voice. I think we all have our own inner Yzma at times. And Eartha Kitt’s voice was purrrfect for the role. (Yes, I just went Adam West Batman on you.)
But when to stop writing is very important and will help you in how to start the next time you sit down as ready as you were when you left off writing the previous day.
1) Leave yourself with ideas.
There is nothing worse than having worked so hard all the previous day only to sit down the next time and have nothing in your head to go with. You need to end your session with a good deal of material in your mind left. This way you will likely be thinking on it while away from your writing area and when you sit down next time you can immediately pick up where you left off and just let the creative juices flow. If you are concerned you will forget something, make a few quick notes to remind you so you have it ready to glance at when you sit down.
2) Stop before exhaustion stops you.
Too many of us just don’t want to stop as those ideas are flowing, but the truth is some of those ideas aren’t going to be very sharp and you’ll have to fix them later, and you most likely won’t be able to really remember what all you did very well. So set time limits and stick to them. Also ending exhausted makes for a weary begin to the next day of writing.
3) Set time limits and stick to them.
You need a break, you need structure. If you are working on a book, blogging, researching, submitting, and living, then you need to set some boundaries. Most people who write a book want to do it for a living. Keep it fun and creative but you need to keep it in check or it will burn you out.
I have been completely wiped out writing, had writer’s block, and just really been a wreck. I’ve written a 30,000 book in 24 hours and was literally unable to function for two days. You have to set limits. For me it was a bit of a necessity at that moment, and maybe I will explain that another day, but I should have stopped, and no, there was no deadline. It was a great feeling to have accomplished something like that but it also made it so I didn’t want to look at another piece of writing for quite some time.
One part of becoming a success at writing is to keep writing, and to keep writing you need to keep it fun both mentally and physically. How do some of you keep from getting burnt out?
