Are you on Twitter and/or Facebook? If yes, how do you find the interactions?</description>

		<description>Blogging is such a wonderful medium for connecting with others. I love keeping in touch with bloggers, it makes the world of the internet a little less isolated!

		<description>Lawrence, if I wake up at 4 in the morning, it usually means I&#039;m not going back to sleep,so I slip into the studio and work on something.  I usually have several projects going at once.

If I wake up enough to write something down and I do go back to sleep, I generally will have woken up enough for whatever it is to make sense.

My mind is always clicking away.  Unfortunately, it tends to move faster than my fingers, so sometimes I don&#039;t even get a chance to write anything coherent down.  I find the most potent ideas come back, though.

Hope that hellps.

		<description>Jennifer, 

I couldn&#039;t have said it better. Great advice. My only problem is when I wake up at 4 a.m. with a big hairy idea and write it on a piece of paper, it usually makes no sense the next day.

Has the 4 a.m. demon ever changed your words around after you fall back to sleep?

Thanks for sharing!</description>

		<description>@Lawrence:  Another thing I wanted to say about building posts:  My ideas also inevitably come to me when I&#039;m not sitting at my keyboard or when I am just unable to make that post right then.  I&#039;m big on writing things out by hand, so I carry a journal just about everywhere with me.  Untimely ideas go into it, and I work on them later.

This applies not just to my blog, but to photos, books, stories, articles, paintings, hand crafted items--anything I will need to &quot;make later&quot; gets written down in my Holy Journal for later reference.  

If you don&#039;t carry one or keep one by your bed, I recommmend it.  It&#039;s been very helpful to me.</description>

		<description>There is so much good stuff here I don&#039;t know where to start!

Lawrence, great post.  As my blog is only a part of my business, there&#039;s not much to it right now. Currently, I use it to post updates about my doings and to promote other artists (of all types.)  Every once in a while, I throw in my own insights on being an artist and a Creative in general.  I have not found my &quot;flow,&quot; but I definitely have the passion.

@Sharron:  Oh, my goodness.  Your comment about procrastination hit me right between the eyes.  I needed to read it, because I&#039;m a procrastinator.  The idea of success is scary, and I&#039;m trying to bust through that barrier.  Thank you!  ;)

So many of you have posted such great thoughts!  I have a ton of blogs to visit now.  Thanks for the education and isights!

		<description>Lee,

Thanks so much for your kind words. Love the young lady to your left. There were many days when my post fell in the forest and no one was there to say it created any buzz. That&#039;s the life of a rookie blogger, or any blogger.

I had the most fantastic week with my rookie blogger post. David&#039;s group was just wonderful. I thought I died and went to bloggers heaven. Guess who I met in bloggers heaven. You&#039;d be shocked. That&#039;s for another post.

I love the way you related Pink Floyd to blogging. Fun and thought provoking. What a great combination.

I&#039;m looking forward to continuing the conversation. My next rookie blogger post will be about some of my mistakes (it would take 3 posts to cover all of them). I hope allows some young blogger to avoid a couple of mis-steps.

Thanks, again.</description>

		<description>An excellent, honest post. It&#039;s amazing the challenges bloggers face when starting a new blogging venture. I&#039;m glad to see so many comments on this post - looks like you&#039;ve inpired quite a few people!</description>

		<description>Simply not ready yet - but working on it. I&#039;ll let you know when I&#039;m in the pool.

Thanks for your interest. You will always have people wanting to converse with you.</description>

		<description>Thank you Johnny. Your comment means a lot to me.

I remember how nervous I was as a young attorney waiting to be assigned out to trial. Those hours leading up to the trial were killers. Once the trial began, it was exhilarating. 

How do we know when the time is right to start blogging? There is no judge to say, &quot;Counselor call your first witness&quot;. I hope Marlene will share her experience with us.</description>
