Hi Debby,
Thank you so very much for sharing my article rewriter tools with your readers. Sometimes I try to comment from work but I am blocked due to having to sign in to WordPress.com. I’m glad I discovered this so I can comment from home. Olga came by and checked out my post. I appreciate your thoughtfulness. I am long overdue on sending you an email just to catch up. Thanks again.

Hi Janice. Yes, it seems he rephraser has caught a few people’s attention. I try to share articles I know that would be of interest to my writing friends. And no apologies, I know well how WP is fussy about signing in from other places. Happy weekend to you. And I hope your husband is getting better. Hugs ❤

What a lot of awesome tips, Debby. These are great. I’m particularly interested in Janice’s SEO-related posts since that’s something I don’t pay attention to at all. I know I’m horrible at it. Youtube is something I haven’t really considered as a promotional tool, except for trailers, so that’s where I’m headed now. Thanks for all the great links!

I often get the urge, but after spending so much time on Girls on Fire, I don’t want to do that again. I almost quit blogging during that time. It took a month to do the first 50,000 words, and then years to rewrite. As I’m reading, I’m learning so much more about writing and I’d have to redo it completely now. Too much time, not enough drive. 🙂 Loving life in the blogging lane too much. 🙂 Good for you, though to keep pushing ahead. I admire you.
