Want your blog followed?

I know, I know- I'm never here. As explained previously I am really focusing on Mr. Bob Dylan right now- developing an application for a Masters program on the transformative aspects both personally and culturally of the language and imagery he uses- which is extraordinary. Cryptic though people find it, there are gems that can give some AHA moments about life just as any good poetry, good literature and Scripture for world religions can do.

But that is neither here nor there for this post.
Want your blog followed? An odd question from me, eh? I never post to my blog partly because I have no followers- and because I am working on the above.
Though I hope to change that soon as my project is coming together.

Here is a link to a facebook group that helps promote blogs! It looks to be a very interesting way of promotion- helping each other along.
Here is a post by one of the group I particularly liked given my hesitancy/truancy in posting (and commenting) myself.

Of course you couple of followers I do have seem to have no trouble attracting followers and keeping up- with occasional breaks for travel and business and teaching etc.- (see, I do check you out!) but I think you may find some good positive reading on the blog I just posted and some assistance for gaining even more readers. I'm going to do it .... just as soon as I start blogging again- LOL

Those who follow me on facebook are probably sick of my Dylan articles and links I am always posting- I see very few "likes" on them- but I cannot help it. I just can't the man has taken me over- (scary? at this age) Eventually I will find followers friends there who are also Dylanophiles I guess.

Still- If you think I'm obsessed check out Lorilie Dylan's bedroom- and be amazed. She must have 150 framed Dylan pix on her walls- AND she is no kid either! My 21" wall decal looks trifling by comparison.
Not a very good pic- Just an afterthought so I hurried. It is over my jewelry making desk.

this is not working out

This blog is not working out.
I'm just not inspired to do it-
There are forces working on/in me.
I've been spending time nesting and working hard- internally- on a project- how to go about it, what its purpose is, shaping it in my mind and trying to understand where it is (I am) going with it.
It will involve art-journaling, creative writing of a personal nature, book-art and a blog.

It will also involve Bob Dylan in as much as his art and being (or my projection of his being) is the catalyst.
It might also involve an M.A. I'm making the beginning contact with a University.

I'm excited as well as filled with trepidation.

It's like a heatwave!


It's not LIKE a heatwave- It IS a heatwave!
The heat index yesterday was 112%!
Well- about 20 miles from here- I don't know what it was here.
Being by the ocean it was a tiny bit less I guess- but still HOT!
I'm trying, I really am trying to get this blog up and running but it always feels so silly writing with no one reading.

I think my next entry will be about what I want this blog to be-
I would like to be chatty, say hi, show off art and whats up on my etsy shop- but I would really like to be writing about ART and the spirit/soul connection. Just thoughts- I'm certainly no expert.
And since I have been avoiding art for a long time.....
somethin's up.
