Fantastic!.....I guess that I should start reading some of the five billion ETSY memo's that I get in my email.

Thanks SO Much. I guess I'll be here at my computer longer than I anticipated.......

Hi Seth,
I visit your blog often, and apparently am one of those who doesn't often leave comments. I love your work, and have nominated you for a Lemonade Award. If you want to participate, or just find out what it is, go to my blog, sharmond.blogspot.com. (I wish I knew how to make this a link.)

Your question about who visits blogs and who comments is something I've often wondered about myself. Sometimes I'm feel that no one visits my blog at all, which is probably true. It's like, "Hello, is this thing on!?"
I do think the majority of visiters are other bloggers, but I'd be interested to find out what your survey says.
The reasons I don't leave comments are the following:
1. Time. I have a full time day job, and between that, all the daily necessities, and trying to find time to make art, I don't have a lot of time to spend looking at blogs, and I'd rather look than leave comments.
2. I type very slowly. Oh, wait- that goes back to the time thing again, doesn't it?

Text tiles ...they are so fragile in their actuality and yet they invite the viewers to come close and study. I am sorry but I am not on face-book and I do not twitter because I too have a time consideration and low energy well on some days. I love coming to you blog...I only visit a few ...but you share your positive white light with all who are lucky enough to have found you. Imagine and live in Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
