I wish there wa...Thanks everyone for your comments! I wish there was an option for replying to each individual comment, but somehow this does not seem possible with this template, so I'll have to pack it all into one here<br /><br />@Nigel: Oh I know what you mean, the day just never seems to have enough hours to do everything. And with all the editing your doing, I'm not surprised you haven't much time for writing blog posts. I'm looking forward to seeing your pictures over at Flickr every day, I'm afraid I'm just not keeping up with uploading or commenting anything there at the moment. But next week, when I'm back from my short holiday and full of energy again :). As for the blog buttons - I was actually just writing a little tutorial on how to make them when I saw your comment. Will post it tonight or tomorrow :)<br /><br />@Elin: So nice to hear from you, Elin! I tend to think too much too sometimes, wanting to write something meaningful, and then ending up with nothing at all. But I'll keep trying too :)<br /><br />@Maureen: Yes, sometimes it's nice to just read, and get new ideas and inspiration, without commenting. It probably also takes a lot of time to make, and maintain connections. I'm struggling to keep it all up, luckily, Facebook still doesn't really appeal to me so I'm not "wasting" too much time there at least :)Nordljushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12338266771808023458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819583803044106367.post-40892032453928045702011-10-11T01:22:40.312+02:002011-10-11T01:22:40.312+02:00Oh, I totally understand your feelings. Some days ...Oh, I totally understand your feelings. Some days I just want to soak up all the internet/blog world has to offer, without adding to it. Meaning, I don't always feel I have much of interest to post on my blog, and I don't feel like I have the time to network with other bloggers. I truly enjoy the connections I've made through blogging, but it can be difficult to maintain it all. Especially when you add in Flickr and Instagram. Don't even get me started with FB. *sigh* I do what I can, and try not to feel guilty about it. Best of luck with your class, it sounds great. And I thoroughly enjoy Nigel's comments here.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13146377365343300346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819583803044106367.post-83438562927968303792011-10-10T20:58:28.064+02:002011-10-10T20:58:28.064+02:00How exiting with the new e-course.

Unfortunately I don´t have the time for it, but maybe I can learn from the changes you make on your blog ;)<br /><br />I am bad att connecting too I think. I think too much before I write a comment, but I´m trying to get better at it.Elinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02130299712887151774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819583803044106367.post-56357876393675886822011-10-10T20:47:20.347+02:002011-10-10T20:47:20.347+02:00....And one more thing....

We were in Flying Lessons together and, ...Hi Again,<br />We were in Flying Lessons together and, hey, I've been following you all along. Now we're in BYW together. So nice for us to be together again in another class. My blog is having a total overall right now, but, hopefully, the new design will be up within days for the world to see. Same name and same address, just a different look.Carol @ The Red Painted Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13491459938837000975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819583803044106367.post-83581846567152136682011-10-10T18:53:20.565+02:002011-10-10T18:53:20.565+02:00...and another thing....!
I'm looking forward......and another thing....!<br /><br />I'm looking forward to hearing how the new "blogging your way" course goes. Maybe I should be doing it myself but I've just started another training course for work which has tons of homework apparently (eek!)<br /><br />I'm sure, before long, you will be able to create your own internet workshops or creative classes. Maybe you are thinking about that already...?Nigel Finnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977560275378505239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819583803044106367.post-12677184719332375982011-10-10T18:46:46.801+02:002011-10-10T18:46:46.801+02:00Aww, bless you Katja, but the pleasure is all mine...Aww, bless you Katja, but the pleasure is all mine. I know EXACTLY what you mean about the effort v. reward of writing blogs - it explains very well why I haven't been able to keep up with my writing for very long, and I am in total admiration that you do. <br /><br />When I set out to write my blog I wanted to either write about the process of the photography and editing, or to just tell the stories that surround the photos. The problem I find is that I take so many photos - hundreds a week - that it takes me so long to look through them and edit them that I have little mental energy left to write about them.<br /><br />(Should I be writing this in my blog?)<br /><br />And then of course there is living a life and going to work and walking the dog and watching films or TV and eating and sleeping and....well, you get the idea. I'm amazed you fit it all in considering all the travelling you do too!<br /><br />Anyway, I'm glad you do what you do. I find it inspirational and motivating, I enjoy the stories behind your creativity and love seeing the wonderful things you create, especially when you combine so many media together - I am so immature in my creative development in comparison. But, I am as happy to watch or listen to other people's journeys and experiences as I am with exploring my own (I even like looking at other people's holiday photos!) But I completely understand the frustrations of not getting much/any feedback - we need that as much as the process of creating art to keep us going. So I understand if you decide to stop, but assure you that you always have at least one person out of those 30-a-day who will try to respond!<br /><br />Right, I better think about cooking dinner now. Or should I photograph some food? Or write about it? Aaaaaghhhh!!!!!Nigel Finnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977560275378505239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8819583803044106367.post-62024097750112844032011-10-10T00:38:47.042+02:002011-10-10T00:38:47.042+02:00So glad you are in BYW, too!
