I just read your blog and loved it! Blogging is something I am going to try in the next few weeks and the tips that you received will be very helpful. My only problem is that I still tend to write academically as I just finished my Master's in Public Administration. It is very hard to break the habit, but something I will work on. Thanks for the inspiration Chela!

Chela, your blog has great content, but I agree that the amount of information is overwhelming. I think you may have enough content for 1 or 2 more blogs in one. Keep up the good work and I look forward to reading your blogs.

I agree with the others - on first glance I thought 'wow..too much to read', it is a little long for a blog. However, your choice of topics are great, really informative and useful and your writing style is excellent :-).
Thank you so much, Jacki, Wendy, and Margaret! I'm so glad to hear that you like the subject matter of my blog (so far). I just need to carve out some time to fine-tune the formatting-- mainly, cut the posts down by, oh, 1,000 words!

Re: My new blog
Hi Chela,
First of all congrats on starting your own blog. I did take a look at your blog and have to agree with Janine where it is visually overwhelming. I am in the process of trying to get my own blog going and after much research have realized that the post should be short and to the point. I am also used to the "essay style" of writing, so it will be a challenge to condense my thoughts. But from my own experience of reading blogs, it tends to attract more readers, compared to a long post where the reader tends to lose interest. But I did scan through your posts and you do have good content, so good luck with the fine-tuning and condensing

I really like your blog. The content is really well written and thought out. My only criticism is that it was a hard going just because of the volume of words. I would try writing shorter paragraphs and leaving a blank line between each one to make it easier to read.
I also had a look at your website and I think you've done a great job. I especially liked your customized buttons (you'll have to share your secret, it's genius!!!). I hope you keep writing because it is really informative. Good luck!
