Blogging solo writes about blogs

Law.com carries this story by Carolyn Elefant from Legal Times: “It’s a Blog World After All”

Carolyn is the author of the My Shingle blawg for solos, which I highly recommend, even for non-solos. One tidbit from her article that struck a chord was:

[O]nce a blog starts attracting an audience — and it will — a blogger is then essentially shamed into keeping posts current at least for the sake of the blog’s little band of readers. . . .
That’s not to say that blogs aren’t time-consuming — solos I’ve consulted estimate that it takes between 20 minutes and an hour every other day to keep up a blog.

Yes, I’m spending that kind of time — and enjoying every minute of it. And yes, sometimes it is the fear of disappointing my growing band of readers that keeps me going — that “shame” factor.

So what? So if you’re coming back or following this blawg on Daily Whirl or a news aggregator, give me some feedback (see e-mail link at left). What do you like? Not like? Use the commenting feature if you agree/disagree with me. And I’ll keep going . . . I promise.
